NekoTech is pleased to announce it's emergence into the PC/Workstation
arena.  NekoTech introduced two products at the Spring Comdex 94 show in
Atlanta, GA. 
 
First, the Mach I, running at 166MHz, with 1Mb cache, produces 70
SPECint92, and 105 SPECfp92.  This system is designed to be an entry-level
graphics and multimedia workstation, pricing ranges from $3,995. to $8,995. 
We are also pleased to announce that BYTE magazine named the Mach I a
finalist in the BEST SYSTEM CATEGORY at Spring Comdex 94. 

Second, the Mach II, starts at 210MHz and is upgradeable to 320MHz.  At
210MHz, with 2Mb cache, it produces 130 SPECint92 and 184 SPECfp92.  This
system was designed around the power user and workstation applications,
pricing ranges from $6,995 to $12,995.

The Mach II was introduced at the Spring Comdex show running at 300MHz.  A
multimedia vendor, running demos at the show built a 3D, 60 frame, 640 x
480 model.  He stated "it takes a 486DX2-66 over 4 hours to render a 60
frame model".  However, on the Mach 2, running at 300MHz it took "12"
minutes.

The current platform is Windows-NT with OSF Unix(to be released soon).
