Hi folks,
I'm looking for XENIX installation disks, documentation, and other
assorted paraphernalia for both the Apple Lisa and the Altos 586
series of machines. Actually, any early (pre-1985) XENIX stuff is of
interest to me, but those two machines are the ones I'm working on at
the moment.
If you have anything that you'd be willing to either copy or let go,
let me know off-list, and we can work out the details. If there's
interest, I'll summarize what I find to the list.
Thanks very much,
Rob Ferguson

I have some of the Altos 586 Xenix disks posted on my site.
I also have a complete set of early Xenix for the NABU 1600,
which is a Canadian built 8086 computer (not a PC).
Regards,
Dave

Hi Rob,
You obviously missed my discovery of a couple of weeks ago :) I've attached
it onto this message; hope you can make use of it! I'm going to try and
install it onto a spare ProFile I've got lying around, assuming I've got an
old Mac capable of writing 400k disks....
Cheers

the Lisa distro certainly was welcome Adrian, but
there's considerable interest in Xenix for other
micros also. There's a revived interest in the Tandy
6000 for instance. And I hope Robert will keep us
abreast of any discoveries ;).
