I think that some people have waited 25 years to run A/UX on modern computers.
What do you think about A/UX? I hope that someone will port Shoebill to Linux, because this is the open source project.

I can confirm that I successfully ran A/UX 2.0 on my Mac mini under this emulator. I can not wait on the moment when I can use A/UX 3.1.1 under Shoebill.

A Unix emulation running on an actual Unix?

Yes.
A/UX can be useful to run old applications created for system software 6 or 7 on the modern versions of Mac OS X.

I want to inform you
