In his message of "Fri, 06 Jan 95 08:29:33 PST." Dave Hinkle asked:

I'm pleased to advise you all that DECnet/OSI V3.0 as well as the other
layered products that were promised for December, 1994 are shipping now.

The media kit order number (if you don't have a subscription) is QA-054AA-H8
(for which the U.S. list price is $800). (The subscription price is $2004 a
year, which is a bargain as the updates ship at least quarterly.)

The external label on the kit I received has the legend "DEC OSF/1 AXP Q3.5
CY94 FCS" and the box spine has the label "DEC OSF/1 AXP Software Product
Library December 1994" (on three lines).
