I think there's a legitimate question as to what role UNIX should play in
the micro world. IBM doesn't have an answer, even AT&T doesn't have
an answer.
I'm very grateful to Apple for commissioning the port, and I look
forward to running vnews and the 'X Window System' (sometimes mistakenly
called X Windows) on my Mac II.
I just hope that if it turns out to be important, they give it the
necessary resources. It's hard to get enough talented people, so I
can understand their go-slow attitude at first.
