Blame their supplier. >I do not run A/UX but a look-alike (not a clone) system, made by >the same company that made the A/UX system for Apple. THAT company did not make A/UX for Apple. We conceived of, designed, and implemented A/UX. We have no "supplier" for A/UX. We own it, build it, maintain it, and enhance it. THAT company does not have, sell or intend to sell, nor is it licensed to sell a "look-alike" of A/UX. No one else has A/UX for the Mac (or for any other platform). Please refrain from posting statements that sound like facts unless you know that they are. -------------------- ------------------- John Kullmann "All opinions and comments are mine alone" A/UX Engineering Mgr ..!apple!jk Voice: 408-973-2939
