We just bought with couple of my friends friend an used Convergent Megaframe computer. The bunch includes two master cabinets which contain 2 Application Processor Cards, 3 File Processor Cards, 1 Cluster Processor card, 1 Terminal Processor Card and 3 1M RAM cards and one 1.5M RAM expansion board. System Software includes CTOS running on 80186-based processor cards and unix variant called CTIX (version 3.0 I think) running on the AP. However the system does NOT include the required card to combine these two cabinets and to run CTIX as multiprocessor unix on both AP cards. I wonder if there is anyone in the net who would know wherefrom such a card could be purchased ? Also the documentation talks about a card called Tape Processor card - any information about that ? Overall I would be interested to get in touch with ALL Mini- and Megaframe users around world, also information on software and hardware for these two Convergent machines would be appreciated. --- Petri Ojala ojala@hupu.hut.fi Kauppalantie 48 B 12 ...!mcvax!santra!hupu!ojala 00320 Helsinki FINUHA::POJALA Finland -- Ojala@hupu.hut.fi
