G'day,

I have seen a reasonable number of advertisements regarding BSD/386 - a version
of real BSD unix that is currently in Beta and about to be released into the
"real" world in about Sept '92.  The version advertised has all source for
the base system, compiler, TCP/IP, etc, etc.

If the version that I have seen advertised the same as the one that people are
discussing in this news group?

If not, then does anyone have comments on the 'real' BSD/386 - i.e. the one that
is being sold?

Jeff.
