	Why? It comes with a nice unix, and employs runtime loading of
device drivers which means that you can do unix driver development
without the usual compile driver, load kernel, boot system cycle (now
its compile driver, load it into the kernel, crash system, reboot :-).

	Seriously, I don't think that ther is a port of xinu to the
raw hardware, and I think that I would have heard of one if there was.
I've heard about a port that runs as a single process under unix (with
xinu processes running ala threads), or you could probably port the
mac code easy enough, the hardware is pretty straightforward.

	In fact, the CT mmu hardware is simple enough that you could
probably implement a simple VM scheme without much trouble.
