Hello all. Thanks for the replies to my question -- not seeing nearly as much traffic here as on the Zebra list, I was concerned that no-one was using it in a production environment. Does anyone have an opinion on how Bird compares to Zebra? And as far as developer support, the Bird team seems fairly small (but quite competent). Are issues dealt with well, or is it a self supported type arrangement? I'm comfortable programming and debugging in C, but it would be nice to know there's a good support network as well. And considering one of the machines we're proposing to use this on will be quite some distance away, we'd obviously like to have a stable system. Best regards. -Chris -- Chris Halsall, Chief Technology Officer chalsall@wamcodm.com Wamco Technology Group Ltd. http://www.wamcodm.com/ #3 Mahogany Court, Wildey, St. Michael Barbados Phone: 246.437.3154 FAX: 246.228.4319 "Every wave in the universe has its own integrity." - Buckminster Fuller "So what I want to know is: is time long, or is it wide?" - L.
