In reply to neozeed. Thank you. Do you have also a key for Windows Server 2003?

Comment on So what is the deal with A/UX anyways? by Maurício Santos

Snow (https://snowemu.com), a new 68k Mac emulator, is capable of installing and running A/UX versions 1.1, 2.0, and 3.0 much like real hardware, as it competently emulates the Macintosh II and SE/30, along with floppy drives and SCSI CD-ROM drives. Ethernet connectivity is not available, however, because the only emulated network interface currently emulated is the DaynaPORT SCSI/Link, which A/UX does not support. Nevertheless, since serial port emulation works well, TCP/IP networking can be achieved via the native SLIP support (/etc/slattconf) found in all versions. It is a great project (written in Rust), though it still requires some refinement.

Comment on Mach386: MACH and BERKELEY UNIX for i386 by neozeed

In reply to niwdanp.

I’ve actually never installed x11 on mach. I know it’s got issues in the default setup, like all old x11 with mice devices and setting it to the appropriate dev.

By the time back then I had 16mb of ram, running x11 was such a massive disappointment I’ve never liked it. From 94 to today X11 and it’s successors are just such a terrible patchwork.

Kind of why I liked NexTSTEP, as no x11.

In reply to tenox.

As of now only Windows.

It’s on a to-do.

Considering it did nothing a month ago, who knows what the future holds.
