	He has an excellent point.  In the grand tradition of overpricing the
   AT&T 7300 and unbundling all the software that aught to come standard with
   UNIX, eg. development tools, wwb, etc...., AT&T's methods of going to market
   with their products will undermind all the technical skills of their people.

	God, I just hope this desease doesn't spread to Sun!

Perhaps it has. Pascal and Fortran have been unbundled, but that's okay,
as nobody uses them anyway :-)
