Hi folks,

Here is a brief summary of my findings on the operating systems 
for transputers (in random order). I've requested some documentation 
from the vendors and I was thinking to compile a summary, but
it seems I have to wait for a while. So, I've decided to post the
following "preliminary" information.

If you feel that I omit some work/product, please let me know. 

Thanks.
