New SPARCserver products using the SuperSPARC (Viking processors) were
announced on May 19, 1992. These includes new models for the 630MP,
670MP and 690MP systems. The announcement also introduced a new
SPARCserver 10 product. The specifications are as follows:

For the new models of the 600MP systems, the new SuperSPARC processors
will be used in varying quantities of multiprocessor configurations. The
memory and disk capacity, local terminal connectivity, workgroup size
and number of I/O slots will remain the same as the existing 600MP
models. The specifications are:
