I am considering purchasing one of these beasts for around $500, and I need help on knowing what I should look for, and what I'm getting into. How much, if any, support is available, new releases of stuff, etc. How is the software bundled? Does it come with a c compiler, AWK, YACC, VI, man, etc, or is this extra and available? Can you run news on this machine? IF so do you need additional disk? What is involved in adding more disk? A faster modem? Does it have slots? What usually has to be added? What about versions of hardware and software? Is there anyone at ATT who I can call for more info? Please reply to me by mail. if there is interest, I'll summerize. Also please feel free to add anything else I should know. Thanks -- Ken Firestone UUCP: ...!allegra!mimsy!aplcen!kenf1 ARPA: kenf1@aplcen.apl.jhu.edu
