June 1, 1995: Altos/SCO Platform Unification
Altos now ships a standard SCO product with its systems. DCI has
unified Platform 15 (Altos) and Platform 99 (SCO Unix). Current
and future DCI product releases for SCO Unix commencing at the
revisions listed to the right are "unified" binaries and are supported
on both SCO and Altos systems.
Plan to install unified binaries on both Altos and SCO based systems
as soon as possible. Commencing August 1, 1995, Passport devices
will no longer be available specifically for Altos.
New orders for Passport devices for Altos installations will receive
SCO devices. Existing Altos installations with Passport devices
are compatible with the unified binaries. Existing Altos installations
without a Passport device may require relicensing.
Support and update services for Altos will be combined with SCO.
Technical support will continue with the exception of creating
any new Altos-specific versions. Should you require an upgrade
to any specific version which is not already available, a unified
binary must be installed. Customers on Annual Maintenance for
Altos will automatically be covered under SCO.
The following list represents the version numbers at which the
new unified Platform 99 commences:
Passport 3.4
UniBasic 5.4
UniBasic-N 8.2
NexGen 1.20
UniBasic-IQ 3.2
IMT 2.1
