        I was recently examining alternatives for a similar system and came
up with the following:

        world box mvII gpx with tk50 (to get diags and distributions)
        fujitsu eagle (NOT super eagle)
        disk caching controller (can't remember right off the vendor will
                        look it up if necessary)
        cipher tape drive 800/1600/6250 emulating a ts11
        spectra-logic controller
        extra cabinet.

        AND BEFORE ANY FLAMES ABOUT FCC REGS, yes this above system will NOT
meet them but:

                a) Many, many universities are exempt
                b) the above stuff in OUR case was in an fcc 'approved'
                        computer room, not out in the open.
