Greetings: Three years ago, we purchased 17 pasco 6500 systems for use with 80286 systems. The interface card for the Vernier MPLI and the pasco 6500 systems are the same. All of the software for the pasco 6500 system was written by Dave Vernier and company, the difference is the box that sits outside of the computer and about $300. We have been very happy with the 6500 systems, and honestly did not know about the MPLI when we made the choice. We contacted Pasco, tel-atomic and someone else when we were ready to buy, and asked them to lend us a system for about a week so we could check them out at the same time. For us, the 6500 was the clear winner. Pasco and Vernier have provided us with schematics and software drivers so we can write our own code, some- thing that other vendors would not even consider. In three years, none of them have failed. We've been very happy. C. W. Robertson WSU Physics
