What type of things don't you like about the Hyperchannel?  Overhead?
System load impact?  What do you think the advantages of the Ethernet
are vs the Hyperchannel?

The Air Force Teleprocessing Services Center at the Pentagon is running
a TCP Hyperchannel network between 4 Multics computer systems.  Its
reasonably efficient from our point of view.

(Actually, the above line should read "from their point of view" as I
Left there a month ago.)
