Portable Netware seems to have rebounded just as the LM/X is beginning
to find a market.  Could some representatives from each side compare
and contrast LM/X and Portable Netware in terms of:

	- PC Services

	- Unix, TCP/IP, Kerberos, NFS and AFS interoperability

	- Performance

	- Availability for SPARC and MIPSco hardware

Also, given that the OSF has picked LM/X as part of its DCE
technology, are there any overriding reasons to go with PN
instead?  (I guess I should add: no flaming please).
