Well, this includes a complete, multiuser, time-sharing OS with vast networking
capability, a windowing screen manager, real time patch on the OS, compilers,
editors, system and end-user utilities, Netscape, the intallation script with
a wide selection of I/O drivers, and, oh yes, EMC too!

Well, it is worth it to me, I don't want to use anything else.
