- The 745i is a really nice looking machine. I have the specs infront of me
- and it certainly fits the bill for what we want. It has the 50 MHz processor
- so is about equivalent to the HP 9000/725 interms of processing power. As
- you said it has a built in HPIB interface as well as the SCSI. The surprise
- for me was that it also comes with 4 built in EISA slots. The only thing I
- didn't like was that it didn't have much in the way of memory slots so its
- memory upgrading is a little constrained. I would love to see VEE-TEST
- running on this thing.
