Doug,

  You've already seen the write up on the DEC 3000 Model 400 desktop system.
The deskside version of the product (code named Flamingo) is the DEC 3000 Model
500. If you look into your imagination (not too far back) and picture a sort of
wider BA23 enclosure, you'll find:

	o A 150MHz cpu
	o Memory expansion up to 1GB (using 16Mbit DRAMs)
	o Up to 6 half height SCSI devices internal (including two removable
	  media devices) running on a separate SCSI bus from the external port
	o An integral HX frame buffer (does NOT consume a TURBOchannel slot)
	o Six configurable TURBOchannel option slots
	o Your choice of 10bT or AUI for ethernet
	o ISDN
	o An RS423 printer/comm port (MMJ)
	o Keyboard mouse cable
	o An RS232 (25pin Dsub) synch/asynch comm port (this can be console)
	o An external SCSI port (this is a completely separate SCSI bus from 
	  the internal controller)
	

  I don't think I've left out any of the configuration stuff. The TURBOchannel
options that are configurable are slots 0-5. Slot 6 is baseboard I/O and slot
8 is the integral HX.

I hope that helps answer some of your configuration questions.

				Thanx,
				  AJ
