Anyone know who will ship the first binary release of SVR4
for any type of hardware ?  AT&T for the 3B2 ?  AT&T for their
WGS 386 ?  I can understand that all the third party suppliers
have to integrate it with their drivers, etc., but if someone
(UI ?) is making such a hoopla about releasing the source code
(for a nontrivial $100K) I sure hope it has been thoroughly
tested and QC'ed on *something*.

If I, as an end-user, really can't get my hands on it for
6-12 months, then all the fanfare about its release last
week is really a nonevent.
