I probably could get a Silicon Graphics 3000 *real* cheap, but the thing is a bit bigger than a bread box... Minix for the Geneve? Don't bet on it!

It was a lengthy posting of all the reasons why we haven't heard from Lou lately with the most important being the fact that they just adopted a baby and he wants to spend lots of time with it. My question was what was his excuse before? The more I hear, the less I believe. He (Beery) also said that if we can wait about 18 months (according to Lou) we'll see a successful computer or some such rubbish. Used to be '2 weeks' Now its 18 months! > > I find purchasing one usually works :-) My spare Pfennigs are going into > > Maybe > > Minix for the Geneve? Makes me drool thinking about it.... > > Minix for the Geneve? Don't bet on it! Not if we depend on Lou and Myarc for it but maybe from a 3rd party? Anything is possible I guess. Maybe I'm just an eternal optimist in some ways. *>> Dave <<* [------------------------------------------------------ Dave Ratcliffe -----] : uunet!rutgers!psuvax1!eds1!wa3wbu!compnect!dave | The Data Factory BBS : : uunet!wa3wbu!compnect!dave | (717)657-4997 : : dave@compnect.uucp or compnect!dave@uunet.UU.NET | (717)657-4992 : "My other computer is an IBM PC, Seiko 8610, Molecular Mod. 9, TI-99 or a Geneve 9640.
