Hi,

Someone here is selling an Apollo DN660 ($75) and a Mentor DN600 ($100).
I am not very familiar with these machines, and I don't have alot of
time to research them. Can anyone tell me good/bad things about them,
or point me to an archive with an FAQ file.

I am primarily interested in the following:

1) What speed does the 68020 run?
2) How much memory/disk is necessary to make the system usable.
3) Is unix (and X) available (and usable -- not too slow).
4) Is (possibly used) hardware available (bigger disks, more ram) at reasonable cost.
5) Lots of PD software?

Any information is greatly appreciated. Please send email, since our
news server is very backlogged (and I won't see your message for a
week).

Thanks,

-Tim Gallivan
