  The XMS is X-MP compatable. It runs UNICOS and all the applications
optimized for the X-MP. The general characteristics are:

    55 ns clock
    64-bit architecture
    64 or 128 MB memory
    80 ns DRAM
    576 MB/s bandwidth
    4 memory ports (2 read, 1 write, 1 i/o)
    VME I/O subsystem
    36 MFLOPS peak (100x100 is 9, 1000x1000 is 34)

>Ditto for the YMP/EL.

  The YMP/EL has not, as of yet, been officially announced, but here are
some specs which have been provided in the past:

    30 ns clock
    64-bit vector, Y-MP campatable
    256 to 1024 MB memory
    1 GB/sec bandwidth per CPU
    1 to 4 CPUs
    4 memory ports

  The rest will be available at time of announcement
