Re: A83: Alternative to Windows 95


...

I'm not sure if Linux is free.. here back north in Quebec it costs 60$
Where can I get it for free... do you know any ftp or http site.

I have a friend that can pass me an old version (I think) of Unix.
Are there any differences in versions... which is the latest one ?

What are the system requirements and how much space does Linux and Unix 
take up ?

What about Amiga ?

I hear that there are lot's of free software for Unix. All the software 
companies like Corel... are trying to boycot MS. 

Tanks for any replys and comments.

BTW. ONTHESUBJECT. What is exactly op1. I know there is a op2.. is there 
a op3, op4, and so on ?
