Hello. A friend of mine has an HP-9000 running UNIX and we would like to trade
software via floppies. My system is a 80386 running Interactive UNIX V.3. What
I would like to know, is from the chart below which is a list of what types of
formats he can read/write, what would be compatible with my system? I have a
fujitsu 1.2 meg drive.

Please mail me any answers you may have (if any).
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
