Howdy.  Well, with all of this talk about Amiga UNIX, I thought that
I'd throw in my 2 cents.

Does it have Motif running under X (I know that it has Open Look
which is better, but many folk like Motif).
Does it have PHIGS?
What kind of software comes standard with  it?
Now, for the REAL killer, does it have AFS running? Andrew File
System that is.  AFS is MUCH, MUCH better than NFS, and considerably
more stable and faster.
If AFS isn't running, somebody there should look into it.  It is
definitely worthwhile!  Also, I wouldn't mind seeing AFS under
native Amiga OS TCP/IP 8-)  NFS stinks!
Probably more questions that I haven't though of...

			Thanks, Ralph
