Well.. I just got a note from Intel saying that they are "ramping-down"
their production of SysVr3.2.  Software support contracts for r3.2 would
not be renewable after April 30, and that we have a special upgrade
price of $399 good until r4.0.

hmmm..

So if they're asking for customers for r4.0 then I don't understand 
why we're supposed to shift to Interactive's r4.0?
