I think the proms should be packaged like a nintendo game cartridge so you can just plug em in and push the reset button. Maybe they could play a little mario bros tune, too! -- A -----/|\---------------------------------------+ - / | \ Bergum@CIM-VAX.Honeywell.COM | - /__|__\ Dave Bergum [MN26-3190] | - t--'--/ 2701 4-th Ave. S., Mpls, MN 55408 | -~~~~~~~~~~ (612)870-5839 | -----------------------------------------------+

I don't get it! Are terminal servers usually unreliable? Are you folks being forced into upgrading? Why all the praise about a product that doesn't crash? (sound of head scratching goes here) jliv

You may bring some cisco users out of the woodwork who will have strong and rather different opinions about the performance of the routers and of cisco in admiting and fixing the problems with their routers.

Well, I never once powered down or rebooted my cisco in the first four months I had it. On the other hand, the failure of the original power supply after 6 weeks, and then 6 weeks later, the identical failure of the replacement power supply ultimately caused reloads. :-( Luckily, since then I've been happy as a clam. It's been up for 8 weeks straight now. (Knock wood...) -- Steve Dyer dyer@ursa-major.spdcc.com aka {ima,harvard,rayssd,linus,m2c}!spdcc!dyer dyer@arktouros.mit.edu, dyer@hstbme.mit.edu
