In regards to Sun's plans for an intel based machine...

In Software Business, an insert in Computer Systems News, on page
3 is a report that Sun is working out details of incorporating 
Phoenix's MS-DOS compatibility technology in Sun's Unix workstations.

In addition, a systems analyst at an investment firm suggests that
one of Sun's options is a 386-based workstation running Unix on MS-DOS
via Phoenix BIOS technology.  (Sept 7, l987 issue)

I hope they do it as I am not impressed with any of the 386's out there
now especially the ones using the Intel mother board however cheap
they are or become.
