Despite all the talk about SYSVR4 and other flavors of UNIX that will be
available RSN, I have yet to hear anything about the price. Can it be had
for less than $2,000? Is it planned only for the 2500UX, and/or the
3000/3001 equivilants, or will 500/1000 owners have to go without?
This is, of course, assuming that it ever IS released. From what's been said
here, it seems like SYSVR3.2 has been running on Amigas for a while now, and
before anything is done with it everyone has started on R4. Will R4 be
released before people start on SYSVR5.x (or <gasp> SYS6)?

I want my UNIX, and I want it SOON if not NOW.

Also, if it's only going to be available for developers, etc. it's not much
good to anyone. Why develop something that won't be used? Why use something
that has limited development? Let's have it released on time for less than
the cost of the average American family, ok? Thanks...
