I would like to get information from everyone who has ported the Berkeley
VLSI CAD tools to Encore's or Sequent's.  I need to find out:
1.  How difficult/easy it was to port the tools?  Are there any peculiarities
    to their port of BSD 4.3?  How many of the tools worked?  How many didn't?
2.  Did you run Magic?  What graphics device(s) did you use?
3.  How well did the tools run on this system?
4.  Have you done anything to take advantage of the available parallelism?
    Do you plan to?
5.  What hardware configuration did you get?

Thanks
