I have an Apricot Xen 'mainframe' which is a 286 based msdos generic from
1986. Its not ibm compatible. Comically, it does have a copy of Windows V1
on its disk which runs, well, like all versions of windows ;-)
Its role was a fileserver for an ms-net network, hence the awful
'mainframe' name. I've always been intrigued that there was a port of
xenix available for this machine - anyone know anything about that, or
about xenix on a 286 based system in general?
