I have heard a great deal about Minix since I started reading vnews.
I have some experience with OS-9 68K and the Atari, but have never seen
Minix.  I understand it is an old version of Unix?  I LOVE Unix!  Would
someone tell me about it and the ST together?  I have a 520 ST with (alas)
merely two single-sided floppies for storage.  Am I dreaming?  OS/K was a
little big for my system (disk space).  I have replied to several letters
I've read, asking for responses, but have never received one.  I imagine
this will generate more visible output.  In any case, tell me all about it,
Okay?
