Singer If you are writing for a UNIX System V based system, and adhere to the standard interfaces, then you can certainly offer your product on Atari's UNIX series, if you want the additional market. If you really want the easiest way to distribute your efforts, then by adhering to the Motorola/UniSoft Binary Compatibility Standard you [in theory (:-)] need only get it working on one 68020/30 system and then the binaries can be used on any complying system, including Atari's. Atari is committed to industry standards for the UNIX line, and already has significant interest from several world-recognized develpment organizations. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Roy J.
