I understood from my conversation with an Apollo representative at the
last Uniforun show that Apollo has a BSD4.2 implementation in the same
sense as Vax/VMS has a BSD4.x implementation, i.e. a BSD4.2 *lookalike*
running under their propertiary OS.  

Be careful to check the exact degree of compatibility, especially if
you are planning to port a lot of existing 4.2 applications to your
workstation.
