We are currently evaluating LANs, and I have been pretty well impressed
by HPs LMX (SCO Unix version) but for one small detail.

The LMX literature discusses "NDIS compatible network cards available from
other vendors" as being usable with LMX.  Ok, so is this an euphemism for
TR (shudder IBM?). (my rep seemed un{willing,able} to say)

I'd like nothing so much as to use unix servers for my PC lans, and to
use the institutionally installed Type I, and to let the users have their
silly PS/2s.
