[comp.unix.questions] 2.10BSD vs 2.9BSD: What do I get for my $200.00?

ucrand@ndsuvax.UUCP (Douglas K. Rand) (11/18/87)

We have a PDP 11/44 running 2.9BSD from 11/83.  I have read some about
2.10BSD on the net and have sent away for my packet from Usenix.  My question
is what is different (and I hope better) from 2.9BSD.  Rumor has it that
no PO's are allowed, a strictly cash basis.

One of the things that I have long wanted to do is connect our putt-putt 
(a pet name for the PDP) to a VAX 11/785 running VMS 4.6 (yuck!).

I would love to hear any comments from you folks that already have 2.10 and
are impressed/dissatified/indefferent to it.

Thanks in advance...
