  This is wierd, why does one pay 80 more in the difference in the 
  1-2 user vs unlimited? Note below that the C devolopment system
  only comes in unlimited.

 So the only explaination I see is below. A difference in the 
 price of the 1-2 user version of the Text Processing package?

  How do they do that? Do the 1 to 2 user versions programs of 
  nroff, troff, go around checking to see if more than one
  user is logged in? Will the 1-2 user version work with NFS?


  Do they sell a 1 to 2 user verion of the C Development System
  cheaper?

  Do they sell a 1 to 2 user version of X11.3 cheaper?
