   HP has indicated that the HP BASIC/UX product (which is an
   application running on HP-UX) is supported today on the 
   Series 300 and Series 400 products and will be supported on
   the Series 700 workstation platforms in the future.

   This is a future product which has not yet been formally
   announced, hence details are not yet available.  HP has sent
   a series of messages and future product strategy statements
   to our sales personel regarding this matter.  Although, the 
   entire hardware platform issue (series 300/400/700/800 and PC) 
   has been somewhat confused within T&M, we are striving to clarify
   all platform related issues.  Simply stating the HP 9000 Series 
   300 products will continue to best meet the majority of the needs
   within T&M. 

   You should consult your HP T&M sales representitive regarding 
   this matter.

   Sincerely,

   Leonard M. Gilmore
