Their prices on '386 processors look very competitive, but there literature lacks "flashiness". Which Floppy drives tend to have less down time ? ERI offers Teac, but some reviewers tend to downgrade them on their MTBF. I am looking to replace an aging Rainbow 100+ with (preferably) a '386, to Run Symphony V2.2, and add windows later. -Bob
