Currently we have 4 386 gateways at our site.  The two that are older
386-20's we have had lots of problems with.  Basically *everthing* has
been replaced in these machines at least once.  But the two new ones that
are 386-25's have been running perfectly with no problems at all.  From
looking at them I think the new machines are a lot nicer quality machine.
