A client of mine wishes to setup SNA 3270 and RJE emulation on
his Tower 650 (2.1.1).  Even though he has no need for X.25, it
appears that he must spend $2370 on SNA/X.25 Networking
(D509-2067-00CT) when all he really needs is V.2 SNA PU2/2.1
Networking (G364-0016-00CT) at $850; my distributor informs me
that NCR has discontinued the second product and now only
supports SNA/X.25.

What gives?  Why is he being forced to pay $1520 for a feature
that he has no earthly use for?  Is there still a source for the
PU2/2.1 software?

E-mail appreciated; I will summarize if there is interest.

Thanks.
