Dave, you and I have talked many times on the phone, so you know not to take this personally, but... I thought that a "nice Altos or NCR Tower" was an oxymoron, kinda like military inteligence... ;-). Actually I am only half kidding. I guess I like piecing my systems together, dispite the problems that involves. I CERTAINLY don't like going to companies that won't tell you what software of THEIRS to purchase unless you are on a service contract with them! That's one place where places like Computone, Digiboard, SCO, and others of their kind really shine... Pre-sales support, something Altos and NCR know NOTHING about. Matthew.
