- In the current issue of Dr. Dobb's Journal, there is an ad from
- Silicon Graphics advertising a new desktop system of theirs. It is
- MIPS R4000 based. They are using Windows/NT as its primary operating
- system. The ad implies that it is available NOW.
-
- What's interesting is that they claim that it will run all Intel-based
- apps with "just a simple recompile". I wonder who they expect to
- re-compile published apps like Lotus 1-2-3?
-
- Anyway, it's going to ship with NT and Microsoft C 7.0 on it.
-
- Now MS has BETTER ship NT on time or they're going to have one very
- very upset OEM vendor!
