I want details! ;) Steve, OS9-68k is available for the Atari ST but I do not have details on where to get it. There is a local (San Diego) member of our OS9 Usergroup that runs it on his Atari ST and maybe he can help. His name is Tom Birt. You can leave mail to him on this echo or call him voice (619) 697-3161. I am running OS9 lev II on a CoCo w/6309 CPU, this BBS, and also a MM/1 that will soon be running this BBS. The version of OS9 on my MM/1 is V2.4 and vastly faster and more robust than OS9 on the CoCo. Warren Hrach, RiBBS/RiBBS_OSK beta sysop, MM/1 Sales Rep.

Steve, OS9 and OS9-68K are realtime, multitasking, multiuser operating systems that are used in a great deal of realtime control applications because they are preemptive multitasking realtime capable. They also provide those platforms with 68xx or 68xxx CPU's a very capable personal desktop operating system as used with the CoCo III and MM/1. Industial users use VME bus system platforms and a few others. It is used by NASA on the space shuttle program, US Postal offices on there systems that weigh, price and issue stamps for mail and packages. Even the old CoCo III with OS9 Lev II I have a BBS running in one window, edit files in another window, use a term program in another window and all can work at same time. It may be described as a mini Unix system with many of the cmds that have been ported over. For both platforms there is term, database, word processor, and graphic shareware, freeware programs availble. If you saw a demo of OS9 on an Atari with the text windowing software 'Kwindows' you would be amazed at the computing power you have even with only 1.5 - 2 meg memory. Again if you want first hand info call Tom Birt evenings at (619)697-3161. Warren Hrach, RiBBS/RiBBS_OSK beta sysop, MM/1 Sales Rep. PS My BBS, listed below, has bulletin info on OS9 and MM/1's --- RiBBS v2.11 (Beta) * Origin: Ocean Beach BBS 619-224-4878 MM1 TECH moderator (1:202/745) Public Message Message # 4874 *MM1 TECH Echo* To : John A Donaldson From : Warren Hrach Subject : RiBBS_OSK uploading Date : 95/03/21 15:33:42 John, Well my first attempt at uploading bombed. The upload window comes up but it crashes and locks up RiBBS in the overlay window while disconnecting the caller. Must be some differance in cmds between what I have and what Calvin has. I put files up in private downloads on my idents and dir-e's of my cmds for Calvin and you to get and compare. I think it is setbaud since Calvin mentioned setbaud.r1.b and I have setbaud.r3.b that I use. I put that in the private download section also. Without my UUCP host working I feel like I have lost my right arm! Anyway it should be back in couple weeks.
