Subject: Re: Ultrix Netscape?
There probably was one in the Navigator 0.9 - 1.0 days...
It appears, though that there's nothing older than 3.04 on the FTP site
anymore...
I'll have to check my old CD's and see if there was an Ultrix version.
Meanwhile... why not compile mozilla?

Why not compile Mozilla? Because it's big and slow.

One thought on Mozilla, it would probably be pretty painful to try and run
it on a system with a 8-bit display (does it still have a problem with
this?), or anything but the fastest MIPS systems (probably even them).
Last I looked it was a real resource hog.
Still with a version of Netscape as old as Navigator 0.9-1.0, you might be
better off with a modernish version of MOSAIC. Then there is always
'lynx', which is the browser I use most under OpenVMS.

Well, first of all because Mozilla sucks (remeber, most DECstations run at 25
MHz, while some run as slow as 12), secondly because it simply doesn't build
on NetBSD/pmax.
I (and others) would appreciate if you'd look through those CDs.

I looked on the old DEC MIPS workstation that we keep around at work with
the software we ran on it back in those days, and it seems we didn't have
Netscape for it, just Mosaic.

Last I heard the current owners of Atari had been considering changing
*their* companies name to Atari as the Atari name is *FAR* better known.
Then there is the fact that in Europe you can still aparently buy new TOS
based systems.

The current parent company of Atari is Hasbro, the toy manufacturer, so I
doubt it.

Actually, all of Hasbro Interactive (including the Atari name and products)
was bought out by infogrames..

Is C-Labs still manufacturing the Falcon or is this possibly one of the
other TOS machines, such as the Haides? I could have the name spelled wrong
there.

No, C-Lab aren't manufacturing any computers any more, but the Hades and Milan
are still available for purchase.

I don't know about the actual state of the Falcon or Hades projects
(it seams like as the Hades is still available), but the Milan is
still in production available as 68040 or 060 Machine (Piggy Pack).
chack out www.milan-computer.de - also available in English
Last October th Milan 2 project was canceled when their production
company for the cusom chips stoped bussines ...

Now?
When Atari was at its peak it seemed like there were dozens
of knock-offs (Otari, Atasi, etc.)
Recently at a PeeCee fair I saw i a P5 fan in box with the box
clearly marked Atari. Grey market certainly.

How cheap.

Oh yes. If only I had some 5000 EUR to spare...

Shure that we're talking about the same system ?
IIRC it's something like 1500 Mark (~760 EUR /
680 USD) for a working system in a PC Tower.

Oops, that's 5000 SEK, or 500 EUR. If only I had even 500 EUR to spare... =/
