	Well we don't have the same configuration, but are experiencing
some hairy problems with 3+Open 1.0. Our configuration is:

	Server: HP Vetra RS25C with 8 meg RAM
	Workstations (20): HP Vectra ES/8 with 640K

	We are attempting to use 3+Start to automatically boot the 
workstations from the server when they power up. We can get no more
than (any of the) 14 machines to boot at one time. We can get 20 to
boot from floppies!

	Has anyone else had similar problems? Has anyone got 3+Open to
work reliably at all? I have heard rumours of 3+Open 1.1, are they true?

					Thanks, Norm
