- In defense of our SR, she probably didn't know I was thinking about LM/X
- for 386 Unix.  However, someone at HP is probably at fault for why I didn't
- ask her ealier, i.e. there was no mention of LM/X for 386 Unix in any of
- the HP literature (price lists, product lists, magazines, etc) I've seen in the
- past 6 months.  Therefore, I just assumed they didn't have it.

- Oh well, I guess this just goes to show - you'll never know if you don't ask.
- 
- Thanks for the info.

- P.S.  I've received several requests for opinions on LM/X on the HP 9000.  We
- will be using it more extensively over the next few weeks, so at that time,
- I'll post an article with any opinions/information that I have.
