Is anybody using/used Coherent, a Unix-alike from Mark Williams. Currently its on sale for 286/386 IBM-like PCs for $99. They claim unix like properties (I guess it is derived from version 7, as I can vaguely remember it used in the same sentences as Whitesmith's Idris). It seems like a good way to waste $99, comes with vi, c compiler and the usual load of the program development utilities including yacc and lex. But I don't know more than what they say in their ad. So whats the deal? E-mail to me and I'll sumarise if there is interest. =============== Don't bite my finger, look where it's pointing ================ Kevin "fractal" Purcell | SURFACE SCIENCE CENTRE | These opinions are kpurcell@liverpool.ac.uk | Liverpool University | shareware.
