Does anyone have any experience with ALR (Advanced Logic Research) CPU's
running Xenix.  I see that they have received favorable reviews in some
of the popular PC magazines but all tests were related to "DOS".

As an secondary point, has anyone run any benchmarks under Xenix 386 to see
if there are significant "throughput" differences on "equivalent" CPU's
running at either 20 mhrtz, 25mhrtz or 33 mhrtz.  Ideally these "tests"
should be run with multiple users on line "simulating" real input and output
under "real world" conditions.
