This is correct.  I have just gotten the semi-official word that the
MacX 1.0 -> 1.1 upgrade is $145 and is order #M01043LL/A.  It ships
in February, I believe.

For those of you who are interested, here's the complete list as I
have it right now:

X Window System for A/UX 2.1        M0411LL/B        $349
X Window System for A/UX Manuals    M0748LL/B         100

MacX 1.1                             M0108LL/B        295
MacX Manuals                         M0602LL/A         85
MacX 1.1 Update                      M01043LL/A       145

X Site License                                        4000
X Right to copy                                         55/per

MacX 1.1 is shipping late in this month (January, 1991).  X Window
System for A/UX is shipping then too (or perhaps first week of February).
X Window System for A/UX includes MacX 1.1.  So does A/UX 2.0.1 which
is shipping sometime in this calendar quarter (sorry I can't be
more specific).
