                                 ORDER
 
        On April 30, 1992, the Board granted the protests of Network
   Solutions, Inc. (NSI)  and PRC, Inc.  (PRC).  Network  Solutions,
   Inc. v. Department of the Air Force, GSBCA 11498-P, et. al., 1992
   BPD    131.  Intervenor Electronic Data Systems Corporation (EDS)
   appealed  the  Board's decision  to  the United  States  Court of
   Appeals for the Federal Circuit, Electronic Data Systems Corp. v.
   Department  of the Air Force, No. 92-1511.   On December 2, 1992,
   the Court of  Appeals issued an order which remanded  the case to
   this Board with  directions to dismiss the  complaint and vacated
   our  decision  as  moot.    Electronic  Data   Systems  Corp.  v.
   Department  of  the Air  Force,  No. 92-1511  (Fed.  Cir. Dec. 2,
   1992).    PRC filed  a  petition  for  rehearing en banc  of  the
   December 2,  1992, order.   By order dated January 21,  1993, the
   Court of Appeals denied PRC's motion, thus disposing of the case.
   Electronic Data Systems Corp. v. Department of the Air Force, No.
   92-1511, (Fed. Cir. Jan. 21, 1993).
 
        On February 5,  1993, the Board docketed the  mandate of the
   United  States Court of  Appeals for the  Federal Circuit's order
   dated December 2, 1992, remanding the protests of NSI and PRC for
   dismissal.
 
        Accordingly, these protests are DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
