If I can find a scsi Qic24 tape drive, I plan on installing Open Desktop
on my IBM Model 80 with Reply Powerboard and Kingston Turbochip. It
runs Win98 fast enough. I suspect it'll run Unix just fine. I've got a
Future Domain SCSI card OEMed for IBM, that is supported, and a
Micropolis 4.3 gig SCSI drive. Hopefully someone on the list will dig
up a tape drive for me that I can put into my PS/2 external SCSI case.

the GUI stuff, give it more oomph than Wollongong did: it was
painfully slow on that Compaq. Along about 1995 the system was being
used more for testing a "SCO ANSI" terminal emulation and I worked out
how to make it not start X on boot, and it continued running that way
(off in a corner with almost no attention) until April 1999 when
Attachmate shut down the former Wollongong offices.
