NS486 will probably be out by year-end (version 3 of the OS is due  
out in Sept, and the 486 version should follow that).
I don't remember prices and minimum system requirements (except that  
a CD-ROM drive is _not_ required, although you may need one to  
install the system software or upgrades).  Post to comp.sys.next.misc  
for more information.
