- I used to think that Unix would be a success, in spite of anything
- AT&T could do. I hate being wrong like this.

- Order your SysVr4 quick, before SysVr5 comes out, without grep, find,
- cut, xargs, tcp/ip, du, mountable file systems, fsck and all those

- $20,000 or so.

- Anybody volunteering to handle the renaming of comp.unix.* to
- comp.os.novell.unix.*?
-
- Guess I'd better get a book on Windows NT, and use my library for
- fireplace fodder. Gates must have one huge grin on his face now.
