[comp.os.minix] Minix's compared to "real" os's

I realise that this subject has been discussed before, but how does 
pc minix compare to "real" os's.  I am talking about minix when brought up to
'386 capabilities.  Is has there been a lot of software ported to
minix, other than gcc, enough to make it a worthwhile consideration
when looking for both and educational tool, and full time OS, or would
I be well advised to keep both ms-dos and minix on my machine?
