I am involved in the consideration of buying an Ncube 2 (we already
have 2 Ncube 1's - one of which is SUN hosted), and Iwas hoping that any
Ncube 2 users could give views on the machine - especially the possibility
of sharing the machine between two departments.
One department would be wanting to run long (i.e. 1 day to a week)
jobs in the background - the other department would want exclusive access
to the machine for 2 or 3 hour teaching sessions for upto 60 (!) users (on a
SUN network - so editing will be remote).
Please reply if you have any suggestions - helpful or otherwise,
though it is not viable for us to purchase any other machine - due to
financial and user library constraints.
Thanks in advance,
Andy.Stratton.
