The following prices are accurate to the best of my knowledge, but should
not be used without checking with an IBM Salesperson.

This is not a complete list of order features as it doesn't include a bunch
of no cost option information.  This configuration has 120MB disk, 8MB of
memory and two free slots.  It comes with the complete AIX 3 for 1-2 users
and includes AIXWindows which includes X and MOTIF.

I hope this straightens out some of the misconceptions about what you get
for $12,995.  It is, in fact a complete system.
