The Unix in question is probably Microport's. They were spun off from Digital Research's efforts to do the official 'sanctioned' '286 port of System V for Intel. Pricing: Runtime - $159.95 (usual utility set) Development - $139.95 (C, f77, lex, yacc, SCCS) Text Preparation - $159.95 (n/troff, pic, eqn, tbl, spell) Complete Package - $389.95 Address/phone # : Microport Systems 10096 Soquel Dr Aptos CA 95003 (408) 688-0286 (No interest in Microport, other than as a person wishing to see proliferation of Unix in the PC community.)
