Apricot Computers Plc’s new 80386-based range of Micro Channel Architecture systems – the Qi range (CI No 1,008) will include support for Unix by November. SCO Xenix (now permitted to be called Unix) does not recognise the Qi’s 3.5 disk drives, said Apricot’s research and development director Peter Horne. Xenix users will be able to run the top-end 600 series machines as four-user systems without add-on cards, and extend the capabilities to thirty users with cards from Chase Electronics. In the UK, the Brummie has struck distribution deals with MBS Plc and Computacenter Ltd: it has its eye on the US, too, where it will market the Qis OEM.
