But the Special Report on + operating systems did not mention GNU + Hurd. This OS is based on the Mach mi- + crokernel, and thus it has been essentially + ported to a wide variety of hardware plat- + forms--nearly as many as NetBSD. To + learn more about the Hurd, and especially + about its binary portability, visit http:// + www.cs.pdx.edu/~trent/gnu/hurd/. Con- + trary to what you say in the text box "Op- + erating-System Research: Dim or Bright + Future?"
