We have been running it for a short time between two 70's hooked up via
an able da-11.  With unloaded systems we get about 60kb during file
transfer.  With one heavily loaded system and one lightly loaded one
we get about 45kb.  We run 2.?bsd and had a few problems, not many,
during installation.  Our problems were due to the fact that, as the
previous msg said, it IS big.  They have tried v. hard to make it a 
"drop in" product, and have done a good job, but the 2.?bsd systems
are just too huge, as normally run, to avoid some hacking during
installation.  (3com is now more experienced in 2.?bsd-ese than they
were...)  It seems relatively bug free and robust.  Our general users have
not been unleashed on it yet -- that'l be the really telling blow.
