For those interested in learning more about Plan 9 and trying it out in a public environment: SDF Public Access UNIX System is hosting their seasonal Plan 9 Boot Camp starting June 20th. Feel free to drop into com and say hello!

But of course! Real hardware or bust.

This particular machine has been my daily driver for months now, so I would say it is faring quite well.

Is this for business or personal? Both? Other? I’m wondering about differences in daily interactions when running Plan 9.

All? I just use it like any other computer, honestly.

Are there any specific questions you have? I can try my best to explain.
