Hi All,
 
  I am currently getting access to an Indigo with Irix 5.2 on an occasional 
basis.  However, I would like to speed up the learning curve a bit by using 
my systems at home.  Is there a sharewrae/freeware package that would emulate 
(or at least be similar to) Irix and it's GUI on a 486-DX2/66 or an Amiga 
(A1200 or A2000)?  How similar is Irix to Unix?  Would Linux on either of the 
above systems be a step in the right direction?  Any help would be greatly 
appreciated.
 
Glen
