<asks about Netware 386 vs. 3+Open>

The gen for NW 386 took about 15 minutes on our net. You don't
mention size or use of your net but in many situations it
appears to be pretty even between the two network operating
systems. Netware gets good support from applications programmers
but if you know that all your apps will run under LAN Manager,
who cares. Adequate tape backup has been an issue for each
system but more Netware Loadable Modules are coming out for
NW 386. Can't speak for LM in this regard but I'm sure other
people will comment.
