I have no problem running the DOS-73 drivers under UNIX 3.51.  That's
the way it's been my entire system life.  The software I have is:

	DOS-73 System Diskette (3 disks)      VERSION 1.00  
		(I don't even know if there is a more recent release?)
	DOS-73/610 Terminal Support (1 disk)  VERSION 1.0
	DOS-73 Diagnostics          (1 disk)  VERSION 1.00  

It's working fine here.  Does anyone know if this once the one and only
version of this software?  If not, can I get it upgraded?  Not that
I admit to dabble in MSDOS either... :-)

I have the 8087 FPA installed on my DOS-73, I haven't done any number
crunching on it, but if anyone wants me to, let me know what benchmarks
to run (ie. send me something to test on it).   I think the "sloooowwwwness"
is because of the screen handling and the nature of the 8086...
