They advertise : a 100 MHz. 64-bit system with word like this. (Ready-to-run : Windows NT. UNIX and UnixWare -2X faster than a 486-66! A : Software developer's dream machine!) It has a 100 MHZ 64-bit : processor, it even has a 64-bit localbus video card.($9,995) : It is the next genaration P5 from Intel? Or other chip : maker? Anyone out there heard it or have their hand on one : of this? If you look closely, it doesn't mention OS/2 as an operating system to run. This looks like a machine based on either the R4000 chip from MIPS or the Alpha chip from DEC. I would guess the former. -- +-----------------+-------------------------------+-------------------------+ | Bill Poitras | Molecular Simulations Inc. | Tel (408)522-9229 | | (bill) | Sunnyvale, CA USA | | | | FAX (408)732-0831 | bill@west.msi.com | +-----------------+-------------------------------+-------------------------+
