  Please quote your source for this statement, such as an order number.
I ordered about 40 copies of Xenix over the years, and I have not seen
any such version. If it's available it would be useful, if it's false
you should correct yourself.

  Someone noticed that UNIX was being run on all these little machines,
and that it would be nice for a single user PDP-11 to be able to have a
less expensive license, with one user being the console and one for
remote use. Is there something wrong with the idea of having a cheaper
version of something which satisfies the needs of many users at a lower
price? Why the flame?
