Hi --

   This would not be considered to be a followup of the article but 
I just thought that it would be closest to what I had to ask.
Is there anyone out there who is using the Seattle Silicon Compilers
as their CAD tools? I am using them and am having quite a few problems
with them. I would like to know if any of these problems are universal
or if they are due to the environment which I am working in. We typically
have about a 100 workstations that can use them simultaneously and I 
keep getting errors of "unable to open file XXXX" etc. 
   Please mail me over this net so that, I expect, others will also have
the opportunity to have a look at what problems the new generation compilers
are facing.
