	The Feb. 19 issue of Unix Today has an article saying that ver 4.0
of Ultrix, due out late March, will bundle in Ingres 6.2 RDBMS. This looks like
it might be the current commercial version of Ingres rather than the old
Berkely version. Perhaps it would pay to wait and look at this before you spend
a lot of $$$ on something else.
