While at a Computer Fair, a salesman gave me the impression that educational
prices would be on the order of $400-$500. Bummer...

Does the release come with manuals in the electronic form? (e.g. troff sources
for the full blown manuals... not man pages)  I know that the manuals are
available on-line for System V/386 from AT&T.  Certainly would be cheaper
to print them out myself, but I don't suppose Apple would allow that. :-(
