> Wonder why MS developed XENIX??????????????????-:)-:)-:)-:)
Well, they did develop Xenix before NT, and unfortunately from this they got
their copyrights on some commercial 'real' Unices - I think it was Solaris
or SCO, in one of the text filters.  'more' I think.  Uhr, I'm waffling.
Excuse me.

> Does anyone have any 1.x versions of GEM?
It's only a Google away...  Try somewhere within http://cpm.interfun.net/ or
inside http://www.deltasoft.com/ -
http://www.deltasoft.com/downloads-gemworld.htm lists it.  However, I don't
think it's worth the hassle - GEM/1 maxed out at EGA, resolution-wise, and
only offers slight advantages over GEM/2 and up (the Desktop is mainly
better in GEM/1, and the window frames are different).

If you want a GEM system, it's probably better to try out FreeGEM (that's on
the Deltasoft URL again) - it's got some new features, it looks more modern,
it's more customisable and it's GPLed as well.
