[comp.unix.misc] ESIX SVR4.0 pricing?

[ I haven't kept up with comp.unix.change.change.change, so here I post ]

I'm interested in upgrading my ESIX SVR3.2 Rev D unlimited to SVR4.0.
Who knows a good vendor of ESIX SVR4.0, full system (all components),
less documentation?  I was quoted a price by ESIX that certainly isn't
an upgrade price (2 users $1299 including docs, $1699 unlimited - this
from a company that originally sold full SVR3.2 + tcp + X for $399!).
"I'm not gonna spend alot on my Unix."

What about alternate suppliers of SVR4 for AT/386 hardware?  UHC?  Intel?

I do not speak for IBM, and vice versa.  We like it that way.

Well how about the following.....
(NOTE: ALL systems come woth on-line man pages)
						2 Users		Unlimited
upgrade with out Dev and Paper manuals 		$335.00		$525.00
upgrade with out Dev and with Paper manuals 	$485.00		$675.00

upgrade with Dev and no Paper manuals 		$395.00		$595.00
upgrade with Dev and with Paper manuals 	$695.00		$895.00

If you call sales make sure you tell them upgrade or new buy. They also
gave you pricing WITH all paper manuals! With out for the Dev system
(non-upgrade) is 2 user $995, unlimited $1395.
