Total port time was ~11 hours - straight. They cut the tape/floppies(?) two hours before taking off from SFO. I have no idea if Apple will support either X or release a Magic port.

Well, I heard a rumor that Magic was running on the Mac II.
It was one of the first big applications that was ported, to
prove the Mac II's ability to run large, useful unix applications.
