Hmmm, so SCO-ODT does work on some 486's!

Well, I read about 10+ posts in reply to my original post and it seems that
they have all contained some useful information. What I found was: 1) At
least one person from SCO seems to have a helpful attitude. This is a far
cry from SCO's technical support asking what kind of computer the customer is
running it against, checking their list, and then telling them to take a
flying leap. 2) There are five system types running ODT on a 486: HP,
Compaq, Olivetti, Intel 401, Altos 5000. This will be helpful in knowing
that it doesn't die on all '486's!
Other things that are interesting: People who assail the quality of the
motherboard we're using. Geez, we checked it out with everything. Its not
brain-dead and it does run SCO Unix. How is ODT so different from SCO Unix?
SCO's claim that ODT runs on "any '486": I still wonder about it. Has
anybody had any problems with installing ODT on a 486? I know of five
systems that do run it, but what about other systems that *don't*?
