I am looking at various fault tolerant vendors and am starting
to look seriously at STRATUS.  I was wondering if anyone out there
in net-land has had any experience with any of the STRATUS/32 family
or with their IBM clone the System 88?

In particular, I am wondering:

	1) How "standard" their version of "C" is

	2) How close their VOS/USF (Virtual Operating System/ UNIX
	   System Facility) is in reality to AT&T UNIX system V.

Naturally they make their claims about these items, but I am interested
in any real life experiences anyone may have had.  All responses
are appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
