MachTen 68k

I noticed this old thread: http://macintoshgarden.org/forum/machten
JFYI, Professional MachTen for 68k is not for sale by Tenon. If anyone would like to sell a copy, I'd have no problem paying for it, but I believe this makes it abandonware. They oldest MachTen for sale is Power MachTen.

I got shouted down when I wanted to post my copy of MachTen. I believe it was version 4.0 68k.

Mine is not an original, but a warez copy anyhow, so I did not take it personally.

I do not believe this product has a real market, as it is slow, and only a subset of UNIX functionality... You would be better served with a 68k X-Windows Client, and use a separate dedicated box for Linux/BSD.

As of now, MachTen 68K can be considered abandonware. However, according to their web page the latest version for 68k is 2.3, not 4.x. The latest PowerPC version (which they still have some in stock) is 4.1.4.
