That review is pretty pathetic in my opinion. It left me wanting
a lot more detailed information than was provided. The article
claims the 6386 is faster than both the PS/2 Model 80 and the Compaq -
OK, but how much faster and how do they do it ? There was also a
mention about some troff previewing on its terminals, but the article
also said neither nroff or troff was provided. I'd like to know a
*lot* more about the UNIX that comes with it - are streams provided
for no charge, or an expensive add-on ? How about RFS ? What kind
of networking interface - TLI I assume ? Any TCP/IP ? When is the
release that allows Xenix programs to run going to be available ?
An on and on ...
