I'd like the following posted to the usenet newsgroup mod.vlsi ...

At UCSD we are in the process of setting up a laboratory for
VLSI  design  for  research  and instruction, and would like
advise/informatation on choices  for  workstations/software.
We  are planning on buying several workstations for interac-
tive layout of custom VLSI. The choices are

o    Mentor (Apollo based)

o    Daisy 'ChipMaster'

and possibly Calma. The software package we intend to use is
'ecad',  and  we  intend  to  hook the workstations into our
local ethernet (using TCP/IP),  to  use  a  VAX  for  design
verification.  We  also  have SUNs for running public domain
VLSI layout software.

Any information on performance, ease  of  use,  interfacing,
would  be  appreciated.  If  there is enough interest I will
summarize to the net.
