Aucbvax.5854 fa.info-vax utcsrgv!utzoo!decvax!ucbvax!info-vax Tue Jan 19 23:21:25 1982 Unix VMS Eunice >From decvax!duke!ucf-cs!whm@Berkeley Tue Jan 19 23:19:28 1982 It seems to me that if UCB can implement the changes described in CSRG TR/4 (Proposals for the Enhancement of Unix on the Vax), Berkeley Unix will be far ahead of VMS. I would certainly advise anyone who is debating Unix-VMS to get a copy of that report and consider what is outlined there. (I think ucbvax!mosher is the person to contact for a copy.) On the other hand, from Kashtan's report, Eunice seems to be making leaps and bounds. If Kashtan can indeed provide an environment on VMS which is identical to that found under Unix, I would be tempted to get VMS with Eunice and then perhaps have "the best of both worlds". But, I am (as of yet) unconvinced that such an environment can be provided.
