First, the company is a public company. They have been in business for a while. The offer a two year warranty on all their products (Compaq gives 90 days). As for the question of the DC376 using the "AT32" bus being non-standard. Well, it is honestly no more non-standard than the memory cards in all of the different 386 boxes out there now, and frankly that doesn't seem to be much cause for concern. Mylex, I'm told, will be releasing EISA versions of their network card and the disk controller later this year (when EISA becomes available). Considering the dozens of computer manufacturers out there, I am rather pleased that one, at least, has done something NOW, to address higher performance.
