	1) For the $395 price ($99 in large quantity) you get:
		AT&T SVr3 standard distribution Unix
		Software development system (C compiler... )
		7 Manuals - Includes the complete P-H Unix series + '386
		implementation notes.
	    You DO NOT GET:
		FORTRAN compiler
		DWB (ditroff...)
		  "AT&T does not have it ported yet and so has unbundled it"
		STREAMS support (also unbundled)
	
	 2) You need:
		Compaq 386 or iNTEL 386 Motherboard based system (or .?.)
		(Does not work well with PCsLTD 386 and MultiTech 386)

		AT LEAST 2Mb of contiguous 32bit RAM

		An iNTEL EE-80386 chip (i.e., a new one without the infamous
		32 bit multiply bug)
	
	 3) Exelan, Lachman, et al have ethernet TCP/IP support products

****
I don't have this product, I dont have any ties to Bell other than using their
tape and ICC hardware, and I suggest calling the 800 number (above) if you
have more questions.
