:) now if Rebol went and ported it to MINIX.... I might just finally be
inspired to dig out the ol' Commodore PC10 and other XT hardware and get
it back up and running...
Now where did I put that MINIX boot disk?
Now that would really be addressing the lowest common denominator.. ;)
Is MINIX still being used in schools to teach Operating Systems Design and
Implimentation?
If so, it may be worth making REBOL available for MINIX. Especially if
there is little, if any, modification needed to the REBOL source.
