Mark, I would suggest you buy Microport from your local used car lot and then 
see what kind of support you get. I really think you're barking up the wrong 
tree. You may wish to acknowledge that the 286 isn't exactly a hot Unix number 
anymore now that 4MB 386 motherboards are in the under $2k range. 

'Some' of us out here are doing all the things you wish to do as a matter of 
course but we tend to travel downstream occasionally especially when rowing
upstream gets a bit too tiring.

I hope you're not trying to make a living off the 'Instant Mainframe' cause I 
don't think they're talking about an 80286 in the ad.
Fred

PS Sorry if this upsets you, but I like the ad.  They bring in calls from the
outside world.
