Our company has been running SCO Xenix 2.3.3 for about a year and a half, and we are very tired of it. The recommendation has come to us to change over to TSX-32, which we are planning to do around September, based on what info I can get. I have already contacted S&H and they are going to send me info. However, their opinion is likely to be biased. Therefore I was extemely happy to see this forum here. I have read through all the messages currently on the system, and have developed the following questions: 1> What is the overall opinion of TSX-32 by the USERS??? 2> What sort of applications are being run on TSX-32? 3> What hardware is required? We currently have a NEC Powermate 386 with 10 meg ram, 230 meg hard disk, Wyse 60 and Wyse 85 terminals, tape backup, dot matrix printer (serial/parallel) and HP Laserjet Series II. There is also a 387 Co-processor. Am I going to have to do any changes in hardware configuration? Ours is an accounting office with 5 terminals, plus one dial in terminal. Our main software is a spreadsheet (preferrably VP PLANNER PLUS), Word Perfect, and tax calculation/printing programs (Personal & Corporate). I noticed there is a good level of support on this forum; what is the opinion of the support from the company? I am looking forward to hearing from anyone who has any info or opinions. I was forced to go into Xenix without any prior knowledge of the system, and had to learn the hard way. I NEVER WANT TO DO THAT AGAIN. Thanks for being there. Adrian
