   Well, Sun is in bed with AT&T (i.e., Unix International), and AT&T has
   evil software patents, so that throws them out...

The AT&T/Sun alliance is dead. AT&T sold off their remaining shares in Sun
this week.  As far as I can figure Sun is back on relatively equal terms
with everyone else.

   Solbourne, maybe :)?  MIPS?  386/486 clone makers?

Solbourne's OO windowing system is availble only from them or AT&T.  Plus
there was some hubub last summer about look and feel.

MIPS?  Yea...

X86    Ack. :-P  ( My idea of a home computer is a 68K box running UNIX... )
