Experience with rust resistant chains?

I posted this in the commuting forum as well and it triggered a discussion of various lubes and whatnot. Only one person had tried a wipperman stainless steel chain and said their experience wasn't that great. The plates didn't rust but the pins did.

So anyone in here have any positive experiences with chains claiming rust resistance?

I have to buy a new chain anyway and won't mind spending at least a little extra if it lasts longer and saves me some maintenance. The salty roads I ride on have been murder on my chains in the past.

Thanks!
