	The product will be mainly used for network checking,
	network-watch etc.

The 3.0 release of software from Sun included two programs that we use
heavily for network management.  The "traffic" program includes a menu
interface, and draws real-time graphs of various network usage
statistics.  There is also a program called "etherfind" that has an
interface like Unix "find" which we use to get packet traces to debug
protocols.  

This is just some of the software included in a Sun-3/50 for list price
$7900.  Also, expect an official announcement of the MS-DOS TCP/IP/NFS
that was demonstrated in February by a major workstation vendor. (sorry
for the plug, couldn't resist.)
