I believe SUN just announced Decnet for their products this past week.
You don't say if this is for an existing system or a criteria for
buying a new system.

	I called these people this week and found out the following.

1) except for the MS-DOS version they only sell to OEMs
2) we were interested in the product running on a 3b2 
    The response from Technology Concepts was:
	a) AT&T had been approached with no sucess
	b) There was some question as to which section of AT&T should
	   be approached.

	If anyone from AT&T or AT&T-IS is listening could they respond please.
	It would seem to me that a number of places who had both 3bxs and VAXEN
        might be interested in obtaining this. We certainly would be!!

Thanks for any responses
