	Calm down, you weren't cheated. As I've pointed out on previous
posts, Info Foundation provides two TCP/IP modules. The $99 package includes
*only* the basic Internet Utilities package. *This* is the same TCP module
included in their Unix Advanced Desktop for $249 or thereabouts. A more
comprehensive TCP/IP-NFS package includes the whole networking package,
including RFS, Net Commands, RPC's and such, and runs for $250 or so. *This*
package differs somewhat from the *UnixWare* TCP/NFS module which includes
a different document set and no RFS.
