In a comp.sys.acorn article, torq@tardis.computer-science.edinburgh.ac.uk says- : > Since acorn have released riscix to ordinary archimedes owners it > might be of some benefit to know this.. RiscIX for the Archimedes? Tell me more! How much does it cost? What hardware does it require? I have an A310 upgraded to 4Mbytes, and an 80M hard disk. Is this adequate?

It was mentioned in the July Acorn User, price is 1000 quid, which is not at all unreasonable for a full bsd unix, microcare come and install it on your HD for you. 80 meg is gonna be a bit limiting, needs about 100 meg at least to use it realistically. I got the info from support@mcare.uucp, if you email them theyll send you a standard letter with all the information about it. Andy
