Ordering Tru64 5.1B-4 hobbyist

I can not find the link to purchase the hobbyist version of Tru64 (is it QA-6ADAA-H8?). Could somebody please point me to the right url?

Thanks,
Jerome

The Tru64 Web site seems to have been
cleansed of all references to Non-Commercial
Tru64. At one time, there was a feedback
form for topics other than the Web site
itself, and the last time I asked about it
(May 2007), a fellow in "Tru64 UNIX Product
Planning" saidL

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner
this email was redirected to an unused
folder.
[Not a good sign, I thought.]

We no longer provide a hobbyist license
for Tru64 UNIX. [...]

You could try a request at the remaining
(and inappropriate) Web site feedback form:

If you send e-mail to sms@antinode-org (more
or less), I could provide contact info for
the fellow I dealt with. While I can't make
any promises, I found him _very_ helpful.

Hi Jerome,

I think the link used to be:

http://h30097.www3.hp.com/noncommercial-unix/buy.htm

However, that now links back to the main Tru64 home page, which does indeed suggest it is no longer available.

The product code you've listed QA-6ADAA-H8, is for the Tru64 UNIX Software Media Kit, as detailed in the Tru64 quickspecs available here:

http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/12669_div/12669_div.HTML

Hope this helps,

Regards,

Rob
