- Yes, if you can get the EA(?) price, it's $180. I just put through the
- P.O. for mine, and an IBM rep. is supposed to drop it off within a few
- hours.
-
- Also, there are a slew of upgrades from other LAN packages. (I say slew
- because IBM, of course, has a different product for every combination of
- package being upgraded from and LS 3.0 Entry/Advanced.) There was also
- a special going on until the end of '92. Sorry. Maybe it will return.

- Hmmm...I don't usually use DOS requesters, but I have noticed Ungermann-
- Bass adapters as an option - at least for OS/2 requesters. I doubt they'd
- not support them under DOS as well. (I realize what I'm saying is not
- what you're looking for - a guarantee - but it may give you enough
- reinforcement to get to someone who can tell you what you need to know.)
-
- Good luck!
