Greetings,
	   I looking for any Apricot users out there in the wide world.  

Generally, I'd like to know I'm not alone, so even if you can't answer my
other questions.  Feel free to reply, anyway.

Does anyone know about a MINIX port for an Apricot ?  I've already asked this
on the MINIX group, but I've decided I asked Apricot people too.

Anyone want to colaborate on a MINIX port to an Apricot ?

Anyone want to swap Apricot knowledge ?

Could anyone tell me where to go to get technical stuff on Apricot (PC/Xi)
internals ?  E.g. hard disk, use or 8089, clock, floppy, etc.  Not just
fact sheets but actual functional/useful information.

Has anyone else looked at porting MINIX or some other o/s to the Apricot ?  
I've so far found only two who've "started", surely they can be more.

Thanks in lieu ...
