	Sorry for taking so long to post the results of my request for info
on Unix for the PC. The reason for the delay is the lack of hard facts on
most of the systems. Several people have seen the article on LanTech's
uNETix, but no one even has an address for them. Reports are that Xenix
will be ported soon, but no one had a date. The only system which people
have actually used is Coherent by Mark Williams. Reports are that this
is a full V7 system (minus UUCP) for $400. It requires 256K and a hard
disk (the system takes up 2M). I received only favorable comments about
the system.

	I would appreciate any other information people can pass me on 
Unix for the PC. And if anyone ever gets the illusive LanTech's address,
I would appreciate learning what it is (a $99 Unix system sounds hard to
pass up).

	Thanks to those that responded to the original request.
