I would like to thank all the people who responded to my questions
about inexpensive OS options. The response was very helpful (and very
voluminous). I have replied to some of you, but those other to whom I have
not responded: Thank you very much, the information was enlightening.
If anyone out there is in the same general boat as me and would like a
copy of all the responses I got please let me know. I won't be flushing
my mailbox for a couple of weeks.
Okay, one more thing. Is the following true:
{people in this group} n {people who know about uw} = 0 ?
I never saw any response about uw for the 386. Any ideas on where I
should ask?

In alphabetical order: comp.sys.amiga comp.sys.atari.st comp.sys.mac Problem is that uw is heavy in sockets, and there's no standard pty on System V that works like the BSD one. And people into System V tend to want 386 clones at home, too. The other problem with uw is that it's a logical subset of PPP, and people are waiting for Godot. If anyone has it, I want it too. -- `-_-' Peter da Silva. +1 713 274 5180. <peter@ficc.uu.net>. 'U` Also <peter@ficc.lonestar.org> or <peter@sugar.lonestar.org>.
