- I should point out that this is cheap, not expensive, as source
- licenses go. Unfortunately, you might need AT&T's Unix source
- license first, and that's probably ten times as much. This will
- change when all computer-sites tell AT&T that they're switching to
- an alternative carrier unless the price of a Unix source license is
- lowered to $5,000, since computer-sites also tend to be heavy
- long-distance users. And that won't happen until Sprint, MCI,
- etc., improve their quality to match AT&T's. Too bad.
