I'm considering buying one of National's ICM3216 32016 processor
and memory board sets and would appreciate any comments any can
give me about them or the 32016 (in general) and unix ports for
them. e.g.

- early versions of the 32016 were reportedly buggy is this still
  true?
- if you have the ICM3216, what do you think of it (design, construction,
  reliability)
- National offers sys V - does anyone have comments as to the quality
  of the port?
- National apparently also offers 4.xbsd under the guise of Genix 4.x
  does anyone have this up and running and is it a good port?  Will
  National sell it to end users (it's not mentioned in the ICM3216
  information packet)?
- how does your 32016 system compare to say a 68010 system (about
  the same power, more, less?)?

 I would really appreciate any comments anyone has to offer, either
 here or by e-mailing me - I will post a summary if I get any
 interesting comments.

 Thanks a lot and in advance,
