But they also told me that there was a decision *not* to release TCP/IP until sometime near the end of '86 when the rest of the networking package was ready. This seemed amazingly stupid to me, so I asked the salespeople if they were really sure what they were telling me was correct. They insisted it was. Sounds to me like H/P is making a big mistake and is getting left more and more in the dust. -- Roy Smith System Administrator, Public Health Research Institute 455 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016
