A number of people have reported what our tests confirm, it runs fine on the
SUN 386i--not as quick as running under DOS on an equivalet 386 machine, but
at least at the level of a 20MHz 286.  SAS is also able to use additional
memory that is important for big problems.  The big disappointment is of
course the graphics - CGA mode only.  SUN has promised to fix this so that a
more reasonable SAS/Graph output appears in the DOS window.

PS: Although true at one time, SAS no longer stands for Statistical Analysis
System - just stands for SAS!
