- Before you get too excited, you might do what few people in this newsgroup
- have done and actually *look at the UAE web page*. The only disk images
- available are freely distributable demos, some of which take over the
- machine so completely that they can run in UAE without a kickstart image.
- The author is fully aware of the copyright issues involved in posting images
- of Kickstart or any other commercial software.

- Please, everyone. Before someone posts yet another misconception about
- UAE, check out Bernd Schmidt's web page at
- <http://www-users.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/~crux/uae.html>. Better yet,
- try it out, too.
