Measurement Computing - Computer Boards PCI cards

Hello everybody,

I am listening since some time and this is my first post.

I have recently installed Comedi on 5 PCs with RedHat 7.3 Linux, and
am in the process of getting them ready for a university Physics
Laboratory course at Scuola Normale in Pisa, Italy.

I have successfully written example programs to do analog input scans
and analog output with National Instruments boards (PCI-6035E and
PCI-6036E) for 4 physics lab. experiments.

I plan to buy some other multi-purpose DAQ boards and I am wondering
if I can spare some money by buying elsewhere, for instance
Measurement Computing  PCI-DAS1000,  PCI-DAS6023 and  PCI-DAS6023.

According to documentation, PCI-DAS1000 is supported by comedi.  The
question is: does the available driver work (apart from calibration)?
This is not clearly stated in the documentation.  I am asking if
anyone has working experience with this card.

Concerning PCI-DAS6023 and  PCI-DAS6023, MC claims they are
"functionally equivalent" to some NI boards that are supported by
comedi.  The comedi documentation does not claim anything.  In the CVS
logs I see these boards are mentioned, something was done to support
them.  In conclusion: does anybody have working experience with these
two boards with comedi, and if yes with what release of comedi and
comedilib?

Greetings,
