I know of at least one company whose workstations run SVR3 and have RFS.
CounterPoint Computer Systems has a operating system they call C-XIX which
is SVR3. The network of choice is RFS. The processor is 680X0. A standard
system comes with 140M of hard disk and 5M of RAM. The company is real and
can be found in Marchs UNIX Review not once, but twice! I seem to remember
NCR's Tower system came with SVR3 and had RFS available, but I could be wrong
there. CounterPoint offers: System 19, System 19K, System 22, and System 22E.
