The 1986 MIT VLSI Tools Release is now available for distribution to
the public within the United States and Canada. The tools are
designed or coerced to run on Berkeley VAX UNIX, version 4.2. The
tape is written in tar format at 1600 bpi and requires about eight
megabytes of disk space.
We require prepayment of the handling fee of $500 and a letter stating
that the tools will not be redistributed outside your organization or
to foreign components of your organization, that the tools will not be
used as the basis of a commercial software or hardware product, and
that you understand that the tools are supplied "as is," without any
warranty. The handling fee is waived for universities, government
agencies, and members of the MIT Microsystems Industrial Group (as of
September 1986: Analog Devices, AT&T, DEC, Eaton Ion Beam, GCA, GE,
GM, GenRad, GTE, Harris, IBM, NCR, Polaroid, Raytheon, Sanders Assoc.,
Teradyne, and UTC).
