A unix-like system written for 6502 (not my doing, I just
find it cute).  Its interesting because in several ways
the 6502's not really a great cpu for this kind of thing
(fixed location stack, not easy to write PIC code...).

But hey, if you can support 8 concurrent users on a 48k
pdp11, why not unix on a c64? :)
