Dolphin Orion - another 88K multi, using SCI. Pyramid this, that and the other - how did we miss them? Intergraph something-or-other - these guys have changed chips a couple of times, so I'm not sure what they're using now. Acorn - they use their own ARM series of RISC chips, but they're worth a mention anyway As far as market share, I think I can safely predict that the Encore 91/93 will take over the high-end market as soon as they become available. ;-) -- Jeff d'Arcy, Generic Software Engineer - jdarcy@encore.com Nothing was ever achieved by accepting reality
