Well, it would have sprang up elsewhere anyway...
Did you know that sun actually *gives* it's Operating system, Solaris away for FREE!!! WHOW!!! and it works on PEESEE boxeez! WHEEE "Intrikit Solaris Weaver" the Dell OptiPlex running Solaris (once i can either DL it, or pony up the $50-$90 to have it shipped on cool looking media, media that'll work on sun & intel hardware!'M thinking of a certain 040 computer sitting in my room, sitting in my room next to the AudioVision, sitting in my room with a 40MHz processor & 64MB of RAM, and yet, i sit in my room thinking "what a nice unix box that'd make" What UNIXes would run on the Quaddie here? and wouldn't it look cool to have those dimmensions and that motherboard in a desktop form factor? Sadly, those Mamallian Protuberances (you'd know what they were if you'd read AppleDesign) get in the way Maybe I should build my own case for something, I'll build it to be similar to one of those cool looking SGI computers, one of the squat, wide onesabout 3/4 quaddie's height, nearly twice the width... oooOOOooo... YAY! I have gotten yet another GREAT idea for my honors project!!! woohoo Learning UNIX!! Official 68k videographer |

Yes, I know that Sun gives away Solaris, but I haven't tried that.I think all the 68k Unixes will run on a Quadra 840 AV except A/UX, which will not run on any of the AV machines or the Quadra 630. Official 68kMLA Music and NeXT Expert
