I just had a look at the web site myself, and was surprised to see that it
doesn't list the other RPM's required for applixdemo installation. The
name is perhaps a little misleading; it might've been better to call it
applixdemo-base instead, as it still needs a language UI RPM (i.e.,
applixdemo-english) to install.

I'll look into getting this corrected ASAP. Thanks for the heads-up! In
the meantime, you can get at least the English RPM from

        ftp://ftp.applix.com:/private/ericding/442-alphalinux-demo/

The filename is applixdemo-english-4.4.2-1.alpha.rpm.
