Has anyone got some experience with the SUNlink product that makes a SUN
3/160 look like a local controller to an IBM/MVS host and hence provides a
TCP/IP gateway to the IBM host for other TCP/IP machines on the same netwrok
as the SUN ?

I would be interested in:
    1) functionality - terminal emulation, file transfer ??
    2) speed
    3) cost effectiveness as compared to other IBM<->TCP/IP options ?
    4) pros and cons
