Imagine our chagrin as a large Ultrix customer (8700) unable >to manage our bridges without purchasing a microvax to run VMS. This is ridiculous. Especially since DEC has said in recent announcements that Ultrix has as much footing within the company as does VMS. I would suggest taking a different approach and insist that they provide the software under Ultrix. Surely DEC would be able to see the sense of being able to announce that the software now runs under Ultrix? -- <---- David Herron -- The E-Mail guy <---- or: {rutgers,uunet,cbosgd}!ukma!david, david@UKMA.BITNET <---- <---- Goodbye RAH.
