- Oh, boy, I hate open ended questions, but I'll never learn...
-
- 3100 Systems - portables. 3130 Pen based, 3170 Safari (keyboard jobby)
- 3200 Systems - entry level desktops, 386sx and better, AT or MCA
- 3300 Systems - larger (but not large) desktops, 386sx and better, AT and MCA
- 3400 Systems - desksides (BIG!) 486sx 25MHz and better, MCA, some have
- multiple CPUs
- 3500 Systems - office-side (seriously BIG!), multi-processors, the first
- range of systems that don't run DOS or OS/2 - run Unix only
- (Windows/NT when it's released)
- 3600 Systems - even bigger, a bit out of my ball game. Definitely doesn't
- run DOS - shame really, I bet some of the games would be
- great.! Oh for a Unix SVR4 version of Wing Commander that
- would run on a multi-processor machine.
- 3700 Systems - WOW.! Supposed to support upto 4096 CPUs, and would eat a
- Cray for breakfast.
-
- I should point out that this description is a little superficial, but I
- don't have enough space to list all of the models and their specs.
-
- Anything else we can help with ?
