There's a new 88Open Sourcebook, which lists software and hardware which
has been certified to comply with the 88000 Binary Compatability 
Standard (BCS) and the 88000 Object Compatibility Standard (OCS).
It's brand new and quite well done.

You might also be interested in asking for literature on the following
topics:  88Open Certification; 88Open Membership Information; DOS-
to UNIX Program Information; 88Open Standards Overview; Press Kit.
