We are preparing to purchase a new system to support Unix timesharing for the Computing Facility here at UCI. We would like to hear from anyone who runs, has compared or otherwise has opinions on the Encore Multimax (running the Umax 4.2 system) as compared with the Sequent Balance system (running the Dynix system). We would like to hear your reasons for choosing one over the other, or your good or bad experiences with one and/or the other. These opinions should help us confirm or question our own experiences evaluating these systems. Please direct mail to me, rather than to the whole list. Thanks for any help.
