I Collen, I have only used a VIP 5 and love it. They are workhorses when well cared for. We recently acquired the VIP 6 AI to back up the remaining years of our VIP 5. The last time our VIP 5 had a PM it was down for 4 days which included a weekend and we only have one processor. The VIP 6 has many up grades for Solution Management. We have not had it long enough to give feedback. Sakura only makes the VIP 6 now so you may want to consider the VIP 6 instead of the VIP 5. Thank you, E-van Yerkes Research Center of Emory University Rm. 2122 (404) 727-7744 (on campus 7-7744) Lab edde...@emory.edu
