All versions of MINIX (IBM/Amiga/Mac/Atari) are available from (You guessed
it) Prentice Hall:

	Prentice Hall Australia,
	PO Box 151,
	Brookvale NSW 2100

or

	``Use our FAST PHONE SERVICE by calling Liz Guthrie
			SYDNEY (02) 939 1333''

[Why they wanted to give a name I don't know :-]

It costs AUD250.

The above is taken from a flyer they sent to this department. As for the 3
month delivery for Atari versions, I don't know. What I do know is that it
took arround *two*weeks* to deliver the MAC version!
