	That was my fault and I am sorry. We introduced our product at the 
January Uniforum/Usenix. I actually made the posting on the 11th, but because
comp.newprod is a moderated newsgroup, it didn't get out to the net until
the 25th.
	If I had realized that it would take so long to get out I would
not have mentioned the introductory price. Instead I would just have mentioned 
that anybody can get a 10% discount by including payment with their order.
Again, I apoligize.

Well, you can try dialing SCO, but I doubt if their fixes will work 
on our system :^) .

Actually, some people are just subscribing for 1 quarter a year ($150)
so that they can get their updates at less cost.

Things have been looking up ever since we started going with the chimpanzees
instead.

You do get 30 day installation support.
