Very good, since you haven't released the system 5, it should be readily
clear to you that I was basing it on the version of UNIX that you have
released.  Since it doesn't really approximate system V, people won't
like it.  It's hard to base product evaluation on the daydreamings of
future releases, you have to work with what has been released.  I'll
believe the info on the future releases when I see it.  Previous lies
by corporate CCI will make it doubtful that anyone here will ever procure
one of your machines.
