The following was with our SCO 386, shipping date 30 June, 1987

   Special Note to the First Recipients of SCO XENIX 386 Release 2.2

1.  SCO XENIX 386 2.2
The Santa Cruz Operation is proud to provide you with SCO XENIX 386
Release 2.2.  SCO XENIX 386 is a 5. licensed, SVID conforming version
of UNIX System V, specially adapted to the 80386 microprocessor.  This
demand paging virtual memory native 32 bit mode system requires a 386
based Personal Computer with at least 1Mb of memory.

This package is one of the "First Customer Ship" batch.  There are a few
details to note.
//

The letter then goes on to list the different packages included in my 
shipment.  I just thought I would let people know  what they are saying 
to the people that get it.

As an added note, on or about July 15, I received an updare package
from SCO, the was a letter staing to the effect "as you may have noticed
there are a few problems with some of the utilities...".  Included in
the package were about 50 pages of replacement documentation, and disks
X1, X2, X3.  I have yet to install this set, but I guess it is about 
time that I do.
