  I'm shopping for some thin ethernet transceivers and a multi-port
tcp/ip terminal server to be used with a small number of Sun 3's.  I'm
aware that the following exist:

Xcvrs:

 Bridge ACC XCVR-TE
 Micom-Interlan U3-NT100 w/BNC tap
 TCL 2010IT 
 HP ThinNet MAU

Servers:

 Bridge CS 1, 100, & 200
 TCL (maybe ?)
 Micom-Interlan NTS100/TCPFP 
 Encore Annex
 Cisco ASM32

  If you have an opinion (pro or con) about any one of the above, I'd
like to hear it.  I'd also like to hear about others that I haven't
stumbled into.

  I'm not a regular reader of this newsgroup, so (even if you post
your reply) please send a copy of your thoughts to me direct.

 -Thanx
