[comp.os.vms] Emulex Performance 4000's?

tpmsph@ecsvax.UUCP (Thomas P. Morris) (04/13/88)

Does anyone have actual experience with the new Emulex Performance
4000 LAT terminal servers? Any beta-testers out there? Anyone who
is using the product now? The UNC School of Public Health is __very__
seriously considering the purchase of the emulex servers in preference
over the DEC DECserver 200's and DECserver 500's. For comparable
configurations (~352 terminal connections) for our new building, the
Emulex product comes out about $10,000 - $15,000 (US) less expensive
than DEC. And if these servers work as well as advertised, they will
be quite a buy! 

Any information, dirt, or war-stories would be welcome, as would any
information concerning success, ease of use, known bugs, emulex
responsiveness, etc.

I'm also interested in the Emulex server...please post your response, or
email me a copy.

(Sorry for the posting, but I haven't yet figured out how to get mail
from this ARPAnet machine to the UUCP world.)
