Not to ask an improper question, but.... What is the "best" unix box around? By best I mean the most reliable in terms of system crashes. We are in need of a multi-tasking system for our business. It needs to be very stable. I've heard HP is good (HP-UX), and it seems that IBM (AIX) is still a little buggy? I do not need graphics nor features (ie. bsd would be nice but system V is probably ok). Cost is of course an issue. This will start out being a stand-alone system that may grow into a little net. I/O bandwidth is important (mulitple inputs and outputs with lots of data). Any help will be greatly appreciated, John M.A. Roy (714) 856-5039 ICS Dept., Univ.
