Dear AMMRLers:

We are considering an upgrade to Topspin/Linux. Bruker will not guarantee that
the software will work unless we buy the PCs through them. We are considering
saving some money and buying the pc's elsewhere (read on if able to help). Do
any of you have any experience with this either way?
