Can a consumer buy the Amiga UNIX source code? If so, how much $$? I am spoiled at work, having the Ultrix source code available whenever I need it. And I need it a *lot*.

Last time I asked USL, a source licence (no redistribution) was $100,000. Anyone with the money can buy it ;-), or, maybe :-(. If C= wants to provide their changes, and drivers to an EXISTING license holder they may charge, or not. Motorola used to charge about $40,000 for theirs. I've asked USL about a "discount" fee for application developers, and others who do not plan to redistribute the code. Driver writers, etc. No luck, so far. Dan Taylor
