     Let me introduce myself as Air Vice Marshal (Retd) P. Govindarajan
    working as consultant with NIS at DEIL.
    
    I have the following querries :_
    
    a) Some reference sites in the industrial or manufacturing environment
       wherein DEC have implemented FDDI.
    
    b) Does Easynet cover any installation where FDDI is present ?
    
    c) Is it possible to connect a heavy duty printer directly to the FDDI
       with a controller card ? Of course, this has to be checked from the
       specific printer manufacturer. What I want to know is whether it is
       technically possible for a printer like device to act as SAS or DAS
       with a proper controller card ?
    
    Shall be obliged for an early reply.
    
    Thanks and regards.
    
    Govindarajan.

|     Govindarajan,
       Off the top of my head, I know we have implemented an FDDI ring at a
    General Motors manufacturing plant in Canada. 
    
    Please contact me if you have any other questions regarding FDDI as I
    support FDDI for GIA networks sales support.
    
    Best regards,
    Debbie
