still interested in Unix on PC's?

[David G. Hough at validgh]

The report Searching for a Solaris Workstation that
I previously announced is getting into the data collection and
analysis phase.   I will send the current draft,
45KB in tbl | troff -ms form,
to anybody who is interested in commenting on inaccurate statements or 
the format of the results presented.   The bottom line for numeric-interest
(as far as known so far) may be in this table near the end:

Mobius, AMG, and Gateway are PC's, SS2 and SPARCclassic are SPARCstations.
