Here's a situation for you: my brother and a friend are both looking at
buying 386 boxes with Unix for the O.S.  I have been looking at 386
motherboards to upgrade Obie with.  If the three of us buy three
licenses and one distribution kit, we still have three valid copies of
Unix.  You may be able to take advantage of this too.

P.S. - We'll probably all end up with ISC Unix, since my brother works
on that at work - source and all.  Be nice to be your own bug fix
departement, now wouldn't it?  No, wait - don't answer that.
