Well an OS/2 version of PGP 5.0i should be available shortly and there is
work being done for a dos & atari versions. Of cource a Unix version is
already available along with the Win95/NT & Mac versions available from
PGP Inc. & MIT.

It will not be long before PGP 5.0 is available for the majority of
platforms currently being used on the desktop.
