>Out of curiosity, would anyone happen to know the power consumption? A Cyber 205, depending upon 2 or 4 pipelines, ECL or MOS memory, and size of memory, dissipated about 30,000 to 45,000 watts tops (including motor-generators). In a normal installation, your big CDC or Ibis disk units would eat up most of your electric bill anyway. The CPU and memory would be a small share of your total power needs. Most installations had 2 motor-generators for redundancy. -- Dennis Fazio | Internet: dfazio@ssesco.com SSESCO, Inc. | Gabnet: (612) 342-0003 511 11th Avenue South, Suite 268 | Faxnet: (612) 344-1716 Minneapolis, Minnesota 55415 | -- Dennis Fazio | Internet: dfazio@ssesco.com SSESCO, Inc. | Gabnet: (612) 342-0003 511 11th Avenue South, Suite 268 | Faxnet: (612) 344-1716 Minneapolis, Minnesota 55415 |
