I'd like to know if you are happy with it. I'm thinking about getting a UNIX port for my AT, but the only reviews I've found in magazines are for the new 386 versions of Xenix. I would also be interested in the quality of compiler tools and the number of bugs in the product in general. Both these products support MS-DOS 8086 emulation modes. Any comments on how well the emulation works? Tim Tucker ..ihnp4!uiucdcs!urbsdc!tucker (UUCP) tucker@xenurus.Gould.COM (Milnet)
