>From Unixgram X, a copyrighted paragon of fleet street/tabloid/nat'l
enquirer muck-raking:

AT&T is working to seal its first commercial deal for Plan 9.
No direct quote, but Unigram.X says Dennis Ritchie told them that
they are negotiating with an unidentified company to bring the system
up on a new machine where they don't have to worry about compatibility.
Hints and inferences of cable-tv info-superhighway, the box on top of your
TV set, etc, as well as remote portable systems.
