Wow, Gould is really laying big money out now. Their first offer
was a few pounds of chocolate, then a TV, now a TV and a VCR! They're
probably risking over $500! What confidence! What's next? A digital watch
maybe?

Considering the big deal Gould has made over "challenging hackers" to
break into their systems and having no successful breakins, you'd
think they'd put up real money.

If your system is that secure, why don't you offer say $20,000 for a 
legitimate bug in the system (no operator error type problems). Then,
some of the more talented people who wouldn't waste their time over
some chocolate or a TV might take an interest.

That might show how much is confidence in your system and how much is
marketing hype.

are running 4.3bsd unix.
