uNETix is an early implementation of UNIX for IBM PC systems. It was not a "true" UNIX, but was written from scratch for the PC without using any code from System V. It only supported a single user. However, it maintained closer compatibility with standard versions of UNIX than early versions of QNX. uNETix' multiple windows capability was possibly the first implementation of windowing in a UNIX-like operating system.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Whole Earth Software Catalog )〕 Up to 10 windows were supported, which could each run independent tasks and could have individual foreground and background colors set with a special color command. Published by Lantech Systems, Inc, uNETix had a list price of $130, but was discounted and advertised at $99. The minimum RAM requirement was 256k, but a 256k machine would only be able to support single-tasking; multitasking required 512kb. It had an emulation environment for MS-DOS that could run DOS 1.1 programs in one window while UNIX programs ran in other windows. Its major weaknesses were slow speed and lack of hard disk support. uNETix came with a full assembly language programming environment, and a C compiler was optional. Lantech claimed that the C compiler was the first available for the x86 architecture. ==See also== * Xenix * UNIX System V * AT&T Unix PC 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「UNETix」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
