Should read:

 	SCO Open DeskTop (1 user)		$ 1000

This is my point exactly, in none of my SCO sales literature does it plainly
state the above. Although it does state:

SCO UNIX System V/386 Operating System (2-user)	595

but for ODT:

Open Desktop			$995
Open DeskTop Server Upgrade	1,495

Now how am I meant to deduce that one is the Multi-user upgrade to the other??

To be fair in the 20 page document titled "Open Desktop, The complete graphical
operating system" on page 8 at the top in a chart it tries to impart this
information.

I thought information hiding was for OOPL!!

	Anyway I've bitched enough, thats the end of it.
