<:I0,0,270,0><:R1,0,><:#1704,5400>This has not been designed as a stand alone or a canned presentation. What we have tried to do is create a set of slides for the upgrades so that you can pick and choose what you need. Since we do not expect you to use all of the presentation, the comment
s with each slide are just additional information.

<:I0,0,270,0><:R1,0,><:#1136,5400>This is either an introduction if you plan a multi slide presentation of the upgrades or a single slide if you need to mention the upgrades, but don't expect serious interest.
<:I0,0,270,0><:R1,0,><:#568,5400>Entire S400 family has upgrades to PA-7100, HP's most advanced workstations.
<:I0,0,270,0><:R1,0,><:#852,5400>Competitors have done board level upgrades within families, however, no one but HP has done CISC to RISC upgrades.

<:I0,0,270,0><:R1,0,><:#852,5400>Everyone knows that someday they must migrate to newer architectures, the upgrades just make it easier to do sooner.

<:I0,0,270,0><:R1,0,><:#1136,5400>An older 400t, 400s or 400dl to a 50 MHz system gets about a 15x increase. The newest S400, the 433s going to a 33 MHz still gets a 3x performance increase. Later slides have the details.
<:I0,0,270,0><:R1,0,><:#568,5400>This is not only a new cpu, but also higher performance graphics, and new features, such as audio.
<:I0,0,270,0><:R1,0,><:#852,5400>The way the cost is kept down is that you keep most of the present system...even to keeping Apollo Token Ring wiring for Domain customers.

<:I0,0,270,0><:R1,0,><:#1420,5400>Each S400 has a two performance and price points. In March 1993, the upgrade of 425e to 715/50 via a box swap upgrade was created which gives every Series 400 owner the ability to get to 50MHz PA-7100 power.

<:I0,0,270,0><:R1,0,><:#1704,5400>For Series 400 customers needing 3D graphics and those industrial or instrumentation customers, a better solution is TradeUp'93. This will allow them to get to the right HP platform for their application. All other Series 400 customers needing to upgrade
to Series 700, an upgrade is a lower cost solution.

to bog down the sales process with lots of detailed questions.
