Description: Not a terribly exciting picture, but I don't think I saw any of WB 2.x so here's one!  This is on my "unexpanded" superkick A3000 with just ECS and an X-Surf.  In the upper right is a telnet session to the 3000UX running AMIX 2.03, with the lame trick of getting 9k+ days uptime!  :-)

It is interesting to see other OSes on Amiga.

The point of AMIX?  Morbid curiosity I guess ;-)  I work with UN*X systems daily (primarily Linux) and if nothing else, AMIX has given me a lot of respect for open standards, and how far UNIX-style OS have come while maintaining so much compatability.

Taking AMIX 1.1, which was released in 1990 I believe, and mounting a 600+GB NFS share on a Linux box running the 2.6.7 kernel is impressive to me.  It's like a minor miracle.  Same with x11, AMIX using X11R4 talking to XFree86 4.3.

whabang banged on about:

I like the backdrop.
I'm going to get flamed for this, but what use is there for AMIX today? It's not really usable anymore, right?


Pure geek, is the answer I guess. I mean, what could be more geeky than this? And lets face it, we're all geeks in a sense, othewise we wouldn't be using a dead platform....

Am I gonne get flamed as well for that last comment? :lol:
