> I know that sales will end 10/03 and support will end 12/06.

Correct.

> When is MPE/iX 7.5 due out?

Current plans are for this summer.

> Is that (as I recall) the last release from HP?

It may be. A lot depends on customer wishes.  We believe
that many customers will not update, even to 7.5.  We
are still discussing if 7.5 will be a "push" release, and
if it will be shipped with all new system sales.

> Should I presume that patches will be generated through EOL?

Yes.

> Also, are there any plans to change the pricing strategy for
> support?  If so, what are they and when do they occur?

I don't know, but I have forwarded your email to folks that
do know.

> My management is asking me to put together a little chart for

Understandable.
