I am interested in buying a cayman GatorBox to connect our twenty Macs
with our 15 Suns.  However, I have heard some rumors that I'd like to
check out.

One is that the GatorBox is VaporWare.  Is there anyone out there
using one?  Could you please send me a description of your experience
with the GatorBox?

The second is that the GatorBox has trouble booting on a busy net.
Has anyone experienced this?

Thank you for your help.  If I get a lot of responses, I'll summarize
for the net.
