We're considering purchasing an AT&T 3B2/400 to support our admin- istrative needs around here, but are not sure whether or not it can handle the load that is required. We typically would have 20-25 users on at a time with most running idle, a few (2-3) running fairly good sized spreadsheets (whatever's available), a few (4-6) running vi, and a few more (2-3) using nroff on some pretty large files. It would seem to be a typical administrative type load. I have looked in the area to find an installation using one with a similar load, but all to no avail. My AT&T rep also has struck out finding a similar environ- ment, so I was wondering if anyone else out there has had any such experience. Thanks for ANY input.
