ahhh.
	We used the PC version of XINU in our operating systems course this
year, but alas, there is much difference between that and the LSI II version.
I believe there was to be a PC version of the XINU textbook ready this spring?
is this text avaialble yet? if not, when will it be available?  Anybody able to
shed some light on this. (surely.... :-)

					Thanks,
							Andrew
