You've seen the ads. You've read the articles. You've heard the gossip. Come see the real thing! Look for the Digital Hospitality Suite. All this week at Winter 1989 USENIX. Watch for announcements concerning the time and place. See the DECSTATION 3100 (code name: PMAX). Hit the keys and ring the bells on the hottest new product in the UNIX marketplace!

Speaking of the above, why was the MS/DOS software emulator made available under VMS (on the "real" VAXstation) and not under Ultrix ?? Or are the salespeople I talked to wrong ? greg pavlov, fstrf, amherst, ny

Try through Phoenix, I don't know about price or delivery. Bob Kinne Optoelectronics Computing Center UCB, Campus Box 525 VOICE (303) 492-3330 Boulder, CO 80309 INTERNET bobk@boulder.Colorado.EDU

I have to wonder about DEC's commitment to Ultrix when they do things like this. Also, how about RBMS (Remote Bridge Management System), TSM (Terminal Server Manager), and LTM (Lan Traffic Monitor). As much as I dislike having to work with VMS, I'm glad that I have access to a VMS node on our network so that I can run these programs. To mention some others, DECwrite is being made available under Ultrix, but what about DECdecisions and the other new software that DEC is touting for DECWindows? How about it DEC? -- Dave White Grass Valley Group, Inc. PHONE: +1 916.478.3052 P.O. Box 1114 Grass Valley, CA 95945 davew@gvgpsa.gvg.tek.com
