nuqneH,

Isn't it traditional to just scowl at someone and only ask them what they
want when they don't come right to the point?  After all, you posted here,
so why ask us what *we* want?  }}:-) (Klingon smiley?)


btw i've heared about Intel version of DG/UX, does anybody know anything
about it?
                                    _     _  _  _  _      _  _
There certainly is one.  DG has a line of computers called AViiON, which
are Intel based.  They have multiprocessor models, and their newest
architecture is called NUMA (Non-Uniform Memory Architecture).  I think
even the pre-NUMA ones had a proprietary architecture, though.

I don't know if you can just drop DG/UX on a regular Dell or Gateway and
have it work.  In any event, it's SysV-ish.  But there are a number of free
and cheap Unices for the PC, including some that are SysV-ish, if that's
what you prefer.
