Hmmm... Well Commodore has already done this. Actually, it is System V R4.1.
It is a full implementation. Nothing has been left out. It's like Prego spaghetti
sauce. If you want a feature, "It's in there!". They should be releasing it
within a couple of months.

Well, hey, if you want unix, you gotta pay 8-( Think of the cost of unix software
too. You're no longer talking small change here. Commodore has done the right
thing, in that they are going to bundle a bunch of stuff with their unix release.
It also won't be very expensive from what I've heard...
