I have several in the systems I deal with. It is used extensively in the Digital Unix systems, and works well. Unfortunately it isn't truely cheap (about $2k list, if I remember). Also unfortunately, there isn't an ISA version. --------------------- Dave Knight knight@zko.dec.com (work) knight@ka1dt.ultranet.com (home)
