OPTIMEM 1000 Revisited

[Brian A. Wolfe]

Hi There,

A short while back I posted an article asking for some experiences with
the OPTIMEM 1000 optical disk (CONSULT - OPTIMEM from SMI) and I received
a few replies from people who used them and then pitched them at one point
or another. 

Well, I've been having a heck of a time trying to get the thing to work
with SunOS 3.3 (the department that owns it never upgraded) and I'm about
ready to punt. From what the people at Sun Consulting tell me the 4.0 and
4.0.3 versions of the driver are much better, but the driver upgrade is
$1200.

Is anyone successfully using the 4.0 or 4.0.3 CONSULT-OPTIMEM drivers? I
don't want to spend another $1200 to only find out that it still won't
work.

Thanks in advance,
Brian.
