I must apologize for this posting, as some of the information contained
within is incorrect. Apparently the most current release of UNIX for the
3B2 (3.2.X) WILL run on the 3B2/300. In addition, SCSI peripherals can
be supported on the 3B2/300. Sorry for any misconceptions that my posting
may have caused.
