Comment on Linux on the OSF Mach3 microkernel (1996)parent

Comments

At the first startup I worked at, we used MkLinux as a way to recycle old (pre-OS X) Macs. One of them was the company firewall for years, another was a Usenet server. It was actually quite a reliable and capable distribution, and of course far better than the crash-prone Mac OS 9 that previously ran on the hardware.
