Will ALLBASE/SQL still be available on the HP-UX servers after the HP e3000
is discontinued?

ALLBASE/UX will be sold by HP until October 31, 2003 and supported until
December 31, 2006.

ALLBASE /UX will be supported only on PA-RISC systems, and its terminal HP
UX release is planned as HP UX 11.11.

HP will not develop, test or certify ALLBASE /UX to IA-64 in native mode.

If HP UX 11.11 becomes obsoleted and off support earlier than December 31,
2006, ALLBASE /UX obsolescence and support will correspond to that date.
