We are considering replacing our 11/780 dinosaurs with MicroVaxes (probably 3400's). One of our 11/780 is currently running 4.3BSD Unix, and I'm getting quotes for a 3400 running Ultrix. I have some intuitive feelings for the advantages and disadvantages of Ultrix compared with other flavors of Unix, but I would like to get some sounder info. So I am requesting any info that contrasts Ultrix with other such Unixs. Any info is welcome, but I would appreciate if the informant would qualify the information as anectdotal, fact, etc. Please send email, I'll summarize - I don't want to start what I assume would be yet another round of "Ultrix wars" (I'm not a frequent reader of this group).
