Starting about 3 months ago we have been getting requests for a UNIX V.4 Command Summary (we publish pocket references for UNIX and such). The question is usually something like "have you updated your system 5 command summary to 5.4 yet?) In every case we have asked the customer, "Are you running 5.4?" The answer is always something like, we might be soon or I heard it would be available. Let me know if you find it. It is hard to write a book (or at least a correct book) on something before it exists. -- Phil Hughes, SSC, Inc. P.O.

As of Thursday last week the answer unfortunatly was no it isn't. I attended the launch of SVR4.0 in Stockholm Sweden. The repesentatives there from AT&T, Unix International and X/Open all stated that there was only one vendor who ( last week ) had released a SVR4.0 product for commercial availability. The Only available SVR4.0 product today is the DRS6000 SPARC based system from International Computers Ltd. The product has so far been released in the U.K. and in Sweden. The DRS6000 is a system for up to 200 concurrent users with 128 Mb RAM and 19 Gb Disc doing 23 MIPS. SPARC is a Trademark of Sun Microsystems.
