Uhh... I've ported GNU utilities to System III (HP-UX 2.1 actually),
and it wasn't that difficult.
Getting back on topic here, I was actually hoping for a Refridgerator
emulator for Linux. It would be greate to not have to get up from the
computer in order get a snack and having somewhere stick old software
projects so the stay nice and fresh would be nice. Just think of the
possibilities if you could use it over a network!
