I have a line on a few vendors that have single output boards w/o Sun software but I'm hoping to do better. "Better" would be: * 2 or more Centronics output ports (I know about the ALM-II) * 6u form factor desired (9u would be ok) * Sun 4.0.X software drivers a plus * Will run on Sun SPARCStation 330/370/390 * Do not need any serial ports * Buffering a plus What's it used for? Outputing large (50MB+) files to a Adobe Postscript RIP. Serial is a joke and there's no E-net on the RIP. Jeff Weber (508) 658-0200 x7026
