Steven,
Well…the reason I'd like to get Unix running on my Amiga is because I'm
going to be starting development at work in a Unix environment in a few
months and I want to have my system at home set up to do the development as
well. So, during those times when I decide to work from home I can be
compatible with my work environment.
Needless to say, I'm not going to spend that much money on a new operating
system PLUS a tape drive PLUS the CPU upgrade to get the MMU in my A2000!
If I wanted to spend that much money, I might as well go out and buy a
33mhz '386 machine with SVGA, Windows, etc… and get a
copy of the Unix we're using here at work (since we have a site liscense)!!
Although I'd hate to get a new machine, it'd cost MUCH less than getting my
A2000 up and running Unix!!
John
