Tomato Abraham Lincoln

I've just sown these, never having grown them before. Any views on taste/cropping/reliability etc?
Thanks :)

Depends on the strain......

Whoops - sorry; I should have done a search first. Apologies. I knew there were two strains - I always look up new things just to get more info on them before I start. I'm not sure which these are, as they were saved by a friend; knowing him, I suspect they are the older one.
Am I right in thinking (having done a Google image search) that the older ones are the ribbed, bigger ones, with the new variety being smoother and more rounded? I would imagine the older variety has more flavour? Will be interested to see which mine turn out to be!
