OK, now that there exists a latest "fixdisk", it's time to upgrade my
system to 3.51.  How the heck does one do that?  I have called AT&T,
who gave me a phone number in Sunnyvale (Hamilton/Avnet?), and the
people there know little or nothing about Unix-PC software and don't
return my phone calls.  So what's the official way to get the latest
Unix-PC software, and how much is it likely to cost me (including a
real C compiler)?  Are there better (and/or cheaper) distributors
elsewhere?

(I just use it as a single-user software development system, so I don't
really need most of the fixes, but the development system I have has a C
compiler which doesn't even have flexnames.)
