That platform can run DECnet at least. It can? Oh I may have a third HECNet candidate :) I have a very nice RS/6000 7046-B50 that only pulls 75W. The Addition of one of those shiny new 73GB Seagate SCA drives I got has made it inot a really nice box. It's no louder than the zx6000 either and has a framebuffer (only does 1024x768 8-bit but it's a framebuffer) too so it's a really nice all-round box. I'm running AIX 5L - do tell if I can DECNet that, I have 4.3.3 too if I need to fall back a version. -- Mark Benson My Blog: <http://markbenson.org/blog> Follow me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/mdbenson "Never send a human to do a machine's job..."
