Center, Univ. of Texas at Austin Lines: 18 I thought someone would post the correct information by now but since they haven't, here it is. You can get 4.2 with the following: 1) a 32V, System 3, or System 5 license. 32V is sufficient. There are many rumors going around that 4.3 BSD will require a System 5 license but a 32V license will get you 4.2 BSD. 2) $750 in advance (not $600, that was for 4.1). 3) You sign the Berkeley license agreement. There used to be a clause that said any disagreements (or lawsuits) will be decided under the laws of California but Berkeley has agreed to strike that clause (it's still in the agreement they send you so you have to cross it out and initial it). This clause was the only tough part of the Berkeley license so you shouldn't have any problem signing it now. If you do these 3 things, you will receive in the mail (after N months) a 35 pound box with 2 tapes and the 4.2 manuals (2 sets, a single sided duplication master for Volume 1 and Volume 2C and a double sided set for sticking in a binder as soon as you get it. Volume 2A and Volume 2B are straight Version 7 manuals).
