Subject: [9fans] Plan9 for a newbie
Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2007 20:32:57 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <45F072F9.10903@watford53.freeserve.co.uk> (raw)
O.K., I've got Plan 9 running as a guest on XP using Qemu. Seems to run
fine and is not unusably slow. I'm at the stage of:
"Hmm, not sure what's going on here - it's all pretty different to Linux
(which I'm quite familiar with). I'm sure there must be interesting
things to find out, but I don't really know where to start"
I need some guidance to take me to:
"Gosh, I quite like this way of doing things, let's find out more!"
and hopefully to:
"Wow, this is mind blowing - why don't all O.S.es do it this way?"
Can anyone suggest things that I might try to give me a sense of what
Plan 9 is all about, please?
Jim Ford
