In the April Computer Shopper, there's an ad from a company called Under-Ware Electronics that list's Xenix 5.2.2 for $39.00, with the development system for an additional $99.00. I called their 800 number (see below) to see what the catch was, and the guy told me this was SCO Xenix for the 286, and I could believe the price they had listed. He also said it included manuals (15 pounds worth, so I assume it's the REAL Xenix documentation), and didn't require any additional purchase. I already have Xenix (which I paid considerably more for!), so I didn't order, but I am wondering if this is legitimate. The price just seems too good to be true. Has anyone ordered this or dealt with Under-Ware? Contact info: Under-Ware Electronics 1-800-442-1408 1970 So. West Street #365 Wichita, KS 67213 Roger -- Roger A.
