UX? Huh.  Is this another great marketing job by HP.  I have never heard
of this beast.  How much? what platform (700 or 800 w/X terminals)?
 
I have *never* been happy with running a mission critial operation that
supports HP3000's on a PC.  I have had to reload a PC due to a disk
failure once and due to "lost clusters" another time.  I would love to
see DTC/Mgr on a more reliable platorm.
 
....Now if they have DTC mgr on Unix, will it run under posix on the
HP3000, so I can run it on my HP3000??????????
