hutchinson%UMass-ECE%udel-relay@sri-unix.UUCP (08/07/83)
From: Charles Hutchinson <hutchinson%UMass-ECE@udel-relay> I'm looking into micro-implementations of Un*x for the 8086/8 and 68000. Right now, I would just like to get some general info on who all makes this stuff, and a little info on what you people think are the better ones (I'm not looking for a major review or anything, just some general impressions.) Any help is appreciated, Reply to me directly or the net if you see fit... Hutch

From: Mike Ciaraldi <ciaraldi@rochester> See the premier issue of "Unix Review" magazine, just out from the same people who publish "CP/M Review". Cover story is Unix on the IBM PC. The article describes, fairly quickly, Coherent, Idris, Microcard (which uses a 68000 board), QNX, uNETix, and VENIX. To subscribe to Unix Review, send $23 for 1 year (6 issues) to 2711 76th Avenue Southeast, Mercer Island WA 98040. I liked the first issue anyway. If you're familiar with the magazine "Unique", David Fiedler is the editor of both magazines. Also, Microsoft is supposedly about to release Xenix for the PC-XT later this month.
