The current release is 2.3.2, But sco are offering 2.3.1 for free.  2.3.2
has many extras which don't constitute 'bug-fixes' but value-added
features which you gotta pay for.

Mhh don't count your eggs, but I *THINK* that if you bought your product
after a certain date, you are entitled to a free upgrade.  I'm pretty
sure that this is the fact with SCO UNIX too (at least our customers are
getting a free upgrade to 3.2.2 if they bought 3.2.0 after July 1).

I'm gonna upgrade too.  And it's gonna be to SCO UNIX 3.2.2.
