Yesterday it was a 200 user ESIX system. I'm serious and curious. Who are 
these people running such large systems on a single box with stock SVR4?

I'd like to see it or talk to them. Are they on the net?

I'll start the ball rolling: Travel Impressions on Long Island, NY. They are 
not on the net but are happy to tell anyone about their brandspanking new mini 
replacing micro running SCO MPX with 256 ports. 

Now it's your turn ...

Hell, maybe we don't need MPX but I'd sure need to see some proof in the 
pudd'n first.
