If IPX support

Maybe I'm mistaken, but there seems to be some IPX support in the
Linux kernel.
I believe that if enough people were interested, and those
people began calling Novell's marketing people asking when a port to
FreeBSD/Linux/NetBSD was going to be available, we'd see UnixWare for
free u*ix before too long.
Well, how many people who run free Un*x variants would shell out a
"reasonable amount" of money (e.g., $1000) for UnixWare? I suspect
it's very few. That's not going to attrace Novell's attention.
