Unix may be good if you have someone else to keep it going for you (i.e. the systems manager) but try installing it!!! At least DOS is relatively simple but - In Summary:- UNIX sucks, DOS sucks, Windows NT sounds like it SUCKS. In the not to distant future, I will be finding out is OS2 sucks the hard way. OS2 may be the only way to utilize a PC poperly. Any suggestions on OS2 whether it is worth trying out. -- Lachlan Cranswick - CSIRO _--_|\ lachlan@dmp.CSIRO.AU Division of Mineral Products / \ +61 3 647 0367 PO Box 124, Port Melbourne 3207 \_.--._/ AUSTRALIA v
