How do you know? Is it going to be bundeled with a 200M disk? I
hope not! That's no better than making it availible only with
the 3000UX. Many people already have enough disk space. Sell it
on tape, and those who need more disk space buy it if they have
to. For those (like me) without tape drives, give each dealer a
tape and let them install in on our machines.

HA! You haven't lived till you've run 7th Edition on a 5 Mhz
8086 with custom MMU hardware :-)
