	Hi all,

	I am thinking of buying a 486, but only if it will run Unix and X
windows. The other day I called an SCO dealer and they said that a fully
configured software package (read: C compiler, Unix, and X - no NFS) for a
single user would cost $1600.0 with student discount!! I might as well keep
my amiga and buy unix for it. That's ridiculous. Could someone give me a
rundown on what kind of Unix/X packages are available for the 486?

	Thanks,
	-Pjm
