MINIX is apparently a V7 UNIX clone and Now I'd like to know as soon as someone finds out if MINIX will run on the sidecar. From what I heard MINIX requires an IBM PC or hardware compatible clone. Is the sidecar compatible enough for MINIX? Sure I'd love to see UNIX on the Amiga, but if I can get UNIX on the sidecar now, I'll buy the sidecar instead of the hard disk I've been saving for. Marnix
