Has IBM introduced a version of AIX/2 able to support more than two
users for the PS/2? I'd like to buy a copy for a model 70. Any idea
how much it will cost?
James.

Any idea >how much it will cost? AIX for PS/2 V1.1 claims support for 16 users. If you want to run many users, I recommend the use of multiport boards sold by Dickens Data. Your IBM rep should be able to provide accurate pricing on AIX and on Dickens Data boards. The prices different people pay for identical IBM software vary so wildly that the price we paid probably bears little resemblance to the price you'll pay. I encourage you to be sure that you can get an upgrade from 1.1 to 1.2. From what I understand, some of the missing features of 1.1 will appear in 1.2 which should be out by year-end. -- Kevin Kleinfelter @ Management Science America, Inc (404) 239-2347 gatech!nanovx!msa3b!kevin
