A company called MEDIA and SOFTWARE has something they call PC/IX that
is supposed to be Unix for XT's and 6300s.  They were at uniforum in
the booth next to us this january.  No number off hand.

I have run XENIX on a XT clone with two users when we started our
company.  If you gotta, you gotta, but it was VERRY SLOOOOOOOOOOW,
especially when one person did a make and another was doing ANYTHING else.

Good Luck To All Brave Enough To Try!
