Is anyone out there using this system? I'd like to know how good their 4.2 BSD implementation is, if the machine lives up to its performance claims, and what kind of service I can expect. We have a very single-character i/o intensive application and I'd like to know if their i/o processors really help out here. Any advice, recommendations or flames on the machine would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance David L. Smith ihnp4!jack!man!sdeggo!dave sdcsvax!sdamos!sdeggo!dave
