I've been told by our Sequent sales representative, that they are dropping
the BCC/shells product.  I think he said they will be recommending or selling
PC/NFS instead.

I forgot to mention, PC/NFS runs over serial links too, if your host supports
SLIP (serial link IP), which Sequent does not.  If you have the DYNIX source,
it might be possible to add this yourself, but we don't, and so haven't.

PC/NFS's Telnet program can open a DOS shell while keeping your session
active, but it takes up a lot of memory when you do this.  You return to the
telnet session by pressing ALT-T.
