Or, you know, at least tell us which platform you are running on, instead of just complaining about other platform.
Speaking of OS archaeology is anyone aware of any good operating systems textbook that discuss systems which are not UNIX-like (e.g VMS, Alto Executive, Genera, BeOS, etc. I'd also be interested in the various mainframe systems). XINU is sort of not UNIX-like and seems to be an excellent approach to the subject, but is not quite what I'm looking for presently. Also to be clear if someone has this book it would more than likely go on my backlog rather than be read immediately.
