- We did (and are doing) the r&d that we showed at Unix Expo and COMDEX. At
- Unix Expo, the mach technologies were DOS and AIX on intel platforms (PS/2's)
- only. We showed similar technology (with more features) at COMDEX this
- week...I did not go so I don't know everything that was shown.
- more to follow...
