What hogwash. If anything, IBM and DEC are following the lead of (of all people), Tandy and Fortune, both of whom introduced low priced UNIX stations many years ago. I guess that once the blessed blue touches you, you're considered theirs. Dirk Grunwald University of Illinois USENET : ihnp4 ! uiucdcs ! grunwald CSNET : grunwald.uiuc@Rand-Relay
