Message-ID: <1988Sep6.155307.283@ateng.uucp> Date: 6 Sep 88 19:53:06 GMT Article-I.D.: ateng.1988Sep6.155307.283 Reply-To: chip@ateng.UUCP (Chip Salzenberg) Distribution: na Organization: A T Engineering, Tampa, FL Lines: 15 My company just got an ad from Interactive Systems for 386/ix plus VP/ix. It's very cheap for the first copy: $99. I've never dealt with Interactive; I'm wondering whether their direct sales people will deliver promptly and take care of any problems. And I am _not_ trying to start a Xenix flame war, but I want to know if there are any significant features or misfeatures of Xenix/386 that I'll miss if I change over from Xenix to System V. Any and all info appreciated; please MAIL and I'll summarize. -- Chip Salzenberg or A T Engineering My employer may or may not agree with me. The urgent leaves no time for the important.
