SCO's ODT does not work on any 80486?

[Tom Parker]

Yesterday I was on a conference call with a person my company sold a '486 to,
and Technology Powers Enterprise(TPE) who made the motherboard.  It seems
that SCO's ODT will not install on this motherboard.  When our customer
called, SCO asked him what kind of computer it was.  They said that since it
wasn't on their list of "approved" 80486's that they could offer no help.  So
TPE gets involved and finds out that SCO has not tested ODT on *ANY* 80486!!!
 Yet they advertize that it runs on the '386 and '486!  Sound deceptive?  TPE
has tried to loan one of their motherboards to SCO for testing ODT, yet SCO
has not been too receptive to this at all.
 
So, a little warning to the wise.  I'd avoid ODT if I were you, especially if
you want to run it on a '486!
