I am having difficulty trying to obtain an educational site license for MacX (for the MacOS). I was told by Apple Software Licensing that the MacX product manager had decided that licensing would be handled by dealers and not ASL. I was told that I would also have to buy a single copy of the software as the site license did not include media or manuals. (By the way, she used the term "right to copy"; not "site license"). I was given the following product numbers: M0108LL/A MacX M0747LL/A Site License One dealer (Falcon Microsystems) says, however, that M0747 is the site license for "X Window System for A/UX" (which, I understand, includes "MacX for A/UX"). My Apple Federal Account Exec says that there is no site license for MacX. 1) If, in fact, there is a site license for MacX (for the MacOS), what is its: a) product number? b) price? (we are a university consortia funded by the Nat. Science Foundation) c) do I still have to buy the single copy (M0108) or is media and manuals included? 2) If there is no site license for MacX alone, do I buy the site license for "X Window System for A/UX" (M0747) instead? Then must I buy "X Window System for A/UX" (M0411LL/A) to get media/manuals (and hope that "MacX for A/UX" will run with the MacOS), or do I buy "MacX for the MacOS" (M0108). I would appreciate hearing from someone who has obtained an educational site license for MacX. Herb Poppe hpoppe@ncar.ucar.edu NCAR (303) 497-1296 1850 Table Mesa Dr. Boulder, CO 80307-3000
