The hardware is trouble-free, it is easy to forget it is there. We use home-grown datagram-style protocol. The drivers have been ported to 4.1bsd and 4.2bsd with not very much trouble. From the programmer's point of view, you push the bits in here, they come out over there, with nary a problem. We also have Ethernet and have found it to be much more troublesome in configuration and operation. I just wish there were more software support for the Pronet. ----James A.J.
