My AT&T package on the subject is 2 years old but in 1988, the kernal
and utilities license for V/386 was $80,000. Binary redistribution
rights and unbundled utility rights are similiarly obscene.
This just goes to show that Unix truly is the product good enough
that even AT&T cannot kill. Support Mach in your lifetime.
