Randell says one could implement Minix as a single process which would
solve the probelm of whether to put it over Exec or under. Does that
mean some public-minded individual could implement MS-DOG on the Amiga
as a separate process? No, wait!! I'm serious! Could it be done so
that recompiling would result in Amiga code? Same calls, single threaded
but with faster graphics...
...Nah! I'm dain bramaged to think it. I
was thinking that would be an easy way to get dBase/Lotus to port over
to the Amiga. I'd rather have 'em learn to do it right and tackle it
head on the way WordPerfect Corp. did. But perhaps CPM, or OS-9, or...
