PROGRESS RDBMS/4GL and Accounting Pa Applications

     Still shopping around for a new *nix RDBMS-based accounting 
and development system, I have come across some possible 
competition to Progress, and would like further opinions from the 
vast mind of Newsnet.  

     Resolve Logic Systems of Toronto sells a package called the 
Resolve Integrated Productivity Set, which includes an RDBMS with 
4GL, applications developer, communications package, SQL 
interface, word processing and spreadsheet, as well as a full line 
of accounting packages.  I didn't think I'd find another product 
with more features than Progress, but it seems to be just that, 
and at a competitive price.  

     Is there anyone out there using this system or any part of it 
who can tell me something of their experiences with it?

     Also, the OPUS Series 100 Personal Mainframe running Sys V 
3.0 has been recommended to me as a better alternative to an 80386 
running Xenix.

     It seems to be price competitive as well, and I'm told that 
it would have comparable performance.  Any recommendations or 
caveats?  

     A thousand thanks.
