Which is *why* it doesn't make sense to run UNIX on am Amiga... because those
386 clones are out there, do all the same things, and are *CHEAPER*. I expect
Amiga with UNIX to cost about as much as a NeXT, and the NeXT has a much better
UNIX (no, not because it's BSD. BSD sucks. It's because it's Mach).
