I could benefit from someone's experience with the ISI workstations,
either the Optimum V (16 MHz) or the Series 400 (25 MHz).  I'm
interested in any comments you may have, but particularly in
reliability (hardward AND software), level of technical support,
actual (as opposed to claimed) adherence to standards (such as VME
bus, UNIX bsd4.2, Ethernet, ...).  I'm particularly interested in how
close they come to being functionally equivalent to the SUN 3/280
system.  Please reply on netnews under this category (workstations)
