I want to get a Mac II for a research project. Parts of this project
are Unix depedent, and I'm not willing to rewrite the code to have it
work on a Mac. On the other hand, I love Macs, so I would like to ask
those people out there that have used AU/X (2.1?) if they could send
me their comments about this product. For example:
1) How compatible is AU/X with, say, BSD 4.3?
2) If we consider a Mac IIci 5/80:
- How fast does it work compared to, say, a Sun 3/50?
- How much disk space does AU/X use? How much left for me?
- If disk space not enogh, what disk make/size would you suggest?
- Is 5MB memory enough? If not, how much do I need?
3) I would like to get a good 16"-19" color monitor. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
