- Is anyone out there familiar with the Motorola 88100
- RISC machine? Any experiences or opinions would be
- appreciated.
-
- I'm consulting for a client who's in the market to
- purchase an automated library system, and one of the
- vendors is bidding the Motorola as the hardware
- for the system. Two of the other vendors
- have bid IBM RS6000s and one has bid a DEC MicroVAX
- 3100.
-
- I've heard of the IBM and the DEC but have no idea
- whether the Motorola is a decent platform.
-
- Thanks
