I just called this number to inquire about online manual pages for SysV/386
3.2.1. They are available as the Sysv/386 3.2.1 DRP (Document Reproduction
set, I think). It is a commercial package intended for a company which
wants to (possibly modify and) resell the documents to end users, e.g. as
part of a custom version of the OS. It costs $10,000 and you have to pay
a royalty to AT&T for each copy you redistribute. The two very nice women
on the line didn't know of any more reasonable way to get on-line manuals
for this machine.
If anyone DOES find a cheaper (~$100) way to get online manual pages
for Sysv/386, I'd LOVE to hear about it. Otherwise, it appears a group
buy is in order :-)
