I did just that...it wasn't that hard buying a Sun :-)

This must be a clever Apple marketing ploy...seriously Apple just
doesn't seem to take A/UX seriously ... this is the most ridiculous
distribution scheme I have ever heard of! Couple this with the A/UX
on a disk controversy ... are these people for real?  Are they
making life a living hell for those that want A/UX hoping that these
people will move on to MacOS...
