Larry this is really a followup to the message I sent before, I finally got SCO to return a call. According to Sharon in sales, what is currently selling is the final version (aside from MINOR bug fixes) of xenix that will be available. There will be no further development work on xenix, To get up grades you have to pay $495 for operating system and $495 for the development system. At these prices it looks like it is better to buy ESIX from everex than to upgrade to SCO unix. Saves about 175 to go with ESIX, once again the SCO blood suckers strike.
