        If Wyse is on the net I'll eat my keyboard.
        Despite the fact that we sell and install 200+ of their terminals
        every month and e few of their 386 boxes, I don't think they properly
        learned the lesson of Televideo. Wyse talks a big deal but there isn't
        much behind it. You better have real clean, good power and no static
        or you memory will surely fail or be erratic.

        We are still waiting for drivers for the multi-port. It seems we're
        always waiting for something that everyone else already has.

        The price is right if nothing else. Hope these comments help.
        We've used the Arnet board with VP/ix and the Wyse quite nicely.
