=================
System V.4 is available from Microport to anyone who wants it, 
BUT - at this time - it should only be bought by people who
know unix and C well.  It is basically being sold now so that
developers can start their V.4 work.  It is not recommended as
an end user platform at this time.  The final "end user" version
will be ready in several months (+/-) and everyone who has 
bought V.4 will get the upgrade free.

Most ISA machines that run V 3.2 should handle V.4 .  The EISA
machines are more of an unknown - I don't know one way or the
other.  Does anyone out there with V.4 use an EISA machine?
