Greeting, I hope I don't start a flame war, but her it goes anyway....
I am looking to go to a Unix(tm) format instead of the next version of DOS.
I have looked at a few possibilities and talked to a few local people about
which "style" to buy. I am looking for suggestions for my purchase or if I
should put off the purchase for some time.
I beefed up my outdated pc so I now have a 386 with 1 meg on board and 4 meg
on an extended card. I am currently running with EGA, but I will be moving up
to SVGA (1024X768X256). The systems also has a 80meg drive prestored to 150+
megs.
I am intrested in getting (hopefully my PC) to run a Un*x with X11 (R4) and
hopefully/eventually go with Motif ontop of X11. (Full developers)
Am I going to be fighting an already lost battle?
I have seen and did preliminary reading on:
SCO
MS Xenix
Intel Un*x (System V R3 real release and R4)
Coherent
Any suggestions are welcomed. If you feel your suggestions are
great, post them!
