My impression of Un!xware is that it includes a license to use the
software on a single system. What software are you planning to run on
the machines you describe as workstations? Bundled MS-DOS? Does
Un!xware include Novell client software for MS-DOS? Or do you plan to
PD or proprietary networking software to run under MS-DOS. Or perhaps
you should add $1200 for system software for the workstations.
