We have been trying to order A/UX, including meeting with Apple and our
local dealer, and are told there is no way we can be allowed to order A/UX
until a dealer is approved in our state (Colorado).  I think Apple's
reasoning here is extremely flawed, since we are Unix experts.  Word is it
will be months before a dealer is named in our state.  Fortunately, Apple
recently named AT&T a national account and we are now in the privileged set
of people allowed to order A/UX without a dealer.
