I am interested in hearing some experiences of Solbourn 4-600 users. I am in a position to help determine if one of these machines should be purchased by a group where I work. The workstations claimed capabilities are impressive (when measured against a comparable SUN 4, for example). I would like to hear from someone to whom the Solbourn is their main machine (>50% of time). Anyone had problems running multi-processors in the box? Anyone experience problems with drivers talking to certain disk controllers (e.g., Xylogic 753)? The service contract (1-year parasol) looks great. Has anyone needed it and does Solbourn deliver? I am interested in all testamonials, from the very good to the nightmares. Responders should not represent Solbourn in any way. PLEASE send REPLYs BY EMAIL. I will return to those who respond a summary of important information gathered. If the summary is news-worthy, it will appear there too. Thank You. Ben REPLY TO: benw@tekgvs.labs.tek.com
