[comp.sys.atari.st] OS-9

fay@encore.UUCP (Peter Fay) (06/28/88)

Ok, here goes my bi-annual question on comp.sys.atari.st:

Is anyone using Microware's OS-9 (OSK?)  on the ST - either 
the "professional" or the other version?  Any comments - good, bad,
worth it?  X-windows running?

Also, anyone have any idea what would cause the serial port line to
go while the rest of the machine is fine? Any quick fixes (other than
resoldering the 68901 (or whatever that chip is) - mine is an ancient 
version 512K version - one of the early ones that continually breaks,
chips unseat themselves constantly, etc. - any good repair places in 
central-to-eastern mass?

Does anyone know where I can buy OS-9 for the ST? Hopefully for less than
Microware's list prices ($150/$600).
