Your opinions will be appreciated

Hi, netter,
My company is considering a MS Windows application that uses DEC's PathWork as
the network.  What we want to know is the following :
  How good is DEC net (that is PathWork), is it responsive enough to be used as
    a multi-user shared file/directory network ?
  How good is it in comparison to other network, say Novell network that runs 
    with MS windows 3.1 ?

Initial feedback that I got was not good at all, but I don't know if that was due to
the system set-up of PathWork or not.  Any DEC long time user has any info ?

I will be grateful for any mail directed to me or to the list.  I will send a
summary if others are interested.

Thank you for reading this mail.
