Perhaps also "too expensive"?
AIUI Atari UNIX never shipped as a product, so that?s academic; nobody
knows what they would have charged. I?m not sure about this, though.
But the ?big 3? alternative home computer platforms of the 1980s all
offered a UNIX ? Acorn RISC-iX, Commodore Amiga UNIX and Atari UNIX.
None caught on ? they were vastly expensive for home users, and the
machines were seen as toys by professionals using SUN workstations and
so on.
