- About 6 months ago, I remember reading an article stating that the first PowerPCs
- will NOT be running the "Pink"/"Taligent" O/S initially but rather Unix with
- X Windows and Motif, with "Pink" to follow at some unspecified time. Take this
- as complete rumor, since the article was printed some time ago, has not been
- followed up on, and the PowerPCs are still a long ways away. (I take anything
- I hear about them as rumor right now... 'cause it is.)
-
- I'll be happy to have A/UX on my Duo 230! (I hope Apple heard that...)
