Good luck with the review, but I have to question a couple of things here.

 * Does Lotus say their 1-2-3 is only for SCO UNIX?  If not, why is SCO
   UNIX specifically required for the review?  Has BYTE unilaterally
   decided that SCO is the only UNIX worth checking?

 * How is the reviewer supposed to know in advance how much disk and
   memory you really need to operate a new 1-2-3 release "efficiently"?
   Isn't that the point of the review?
