I caught the tail end of a flame war earlier, I really hope this doesn't
start another. I'm looking for any opinions - hopefully objective - on
the strengths and weaknesses of different 386 UNIX platforms. Some key
concerns:

        - stability
        - efficiency/speed
        - TCP/IP, SLIP and/or PPP support
        - support for 24-bit true color hardware of any sort,
          but preferrably on the cheap.

E-mail is much appreciated. I hope also that people can post their
opinions and engender further discussion, without bristling fur and
ruffling feathers.

Thanks much,
Brandon
