I believe the plan is to continue to sell 3.2.1 until demand drops off. The 4.0 product is STRAIGHT from AT&T with bug fixes and enhancements(X11R4, Motif 1.1, X.desktop, SLIP, auto-config of devices, C-News, rn, emacs, elm, MMDF) from Dell. All of the GNU stuff will be available for download from our tech support machine when we start shipping.(answering the inevitable question about GNU sources).
