	I know a number of people on these lists have expressed interest
	in a professional office package for m68k platforms - now is
	your chance to be heard :)

	Its worth noting that a NetBSD m68k port of Applixware would
	work on all m68k platforms

Subject: Applixware for NetBSD


I've been contracting at Applix, doing a port of Applixware to NetBSD.
As feedback into the marketing plan, it would be useful to know how
much interest there is in the port.

To refresh everyone's memory, Applixware is an office suite; that is,
it contains word processor, spreadsheet, presentation software, a GUI
database query engine, etc.  It can read files from M$ Office and many
other products.

The Linux version is priced at roughly $100.  If you'd be willing to
buy the NetBSD version for that price, please send mail to
applix-interest@ihack.net, specifying the number of copies and which
hardware platforms you're interested in.
