I have just installed ISC 386/ix on a 386sx machine (Intel 300sx). I am new to Unix. I am in need of a fair hunk of disk space, and obtained the following quote from R-squared in Englewood COlorado, after reading a posting here. Fujitsu 1.2 gig drive, or Wren 1.2 gig drive. Adaptec 1542B scsi controller card. 2-drive cabinet cables, terminators, etc. 2.5gb Exabyte 8mm tape drive. Driver code included. Costs $5055 USD Questions: 1. Are these prices reasonable? (They seem fairly good to me, compared to Canadian prices) 2. Is R-squared a good company to deal with (No grey components, etc)? 3. Does this stuff run fairly well under ISC? 4. Are there better choices for this sort of hardware? Thanks...
