I received a note from Prentiss-Hall via snail-mail about my MacMinix order. They said the earliest expected shipping date is November 9. Ah well, let's hope they don't have disk duplication problems! -- Craig Ruff NCAR cruff@ncar.ucar.edu (303) 497-1211 P.O. Box 3000 Boulder, CO 80307

This information is from the 1-800-xxx-0023 number (cannot remember the prefix). I was told to expect it on Tuesday or Wednesday. Now my question is...should I still pay for the next day air when it's been over a week and 3/4? Time to find out that there really is life beyond a scroll-bar on the Macintosh.

Good news. I placed my order on Friday, P-H said that they would be expecting a shipment on Monday, and would ship the same day they received materials. They did. I received MacMinix yesterday, and after a bit of a problem with the install doc, managed to come up with a workable configuration. Some typo's, don't have a definitive list, but will do tonight. This was on a IIcx. but MacMinix would *not* come up on the MacPortable! What's the hitch? Claims are that any mac >128K Roms && > 1Mb will run. My portable has 5Mb. MacBoot freezes mouse immediatly, then reboots.
