Two C compilers are included with our release:  the standard cc as well
as gcc.  Emacs as well as other public domain software including news, elm,
rn, less, etc. are also included.  We felt that these utilities are useful
and "standard" enough to warrant including on our release.  Source code for
the public domain utilities is included in a separate archive on the release
tape.

I agree.  My preferred monitor is a Moniterm 19 inch B&W.  I usually make
most of my multiscreens 50 lines/screen.  It's also a good monitor for
running X.
