PIXEL & OPTIMUM

I've benchmarked the Integrated Solution system running 4.2 and was 
very impressed with its performance when running multiple C compiles.  
It left every other 68,000 system I'd tried or read about coughing in
the dust.  However their port is not yet tuned and the file system is 
still slow.  I visited the plant, talked with the people, and expect 
good things from them.

However, I would not try to run more than 5 or maybe 6 serious users on 
anything with a single 68,000.  A couple of "makes" will produce unhappy
users.
