In regard to this and to your previous posting regarding 88K unix ports,
Motorola Computer Group has a variety of 188 boards available, as well as
a port of SVR3.2 today and SVR4 in the pipeline for next year.  SPEC
benchmarks have been published for 88100-based Motorola systems with the
current software.  Current SPEC-marks for method A give the 188DP a 2@13.5
rating and the 188QP a 4@10.3.  The original SPEC result gave a 15.2 to the
188SP machine.  These are all 25Mhz boards with the 188SP being a single
processor, the DP a dual, and the QP a quad.  Full details and a demonstration
could be had from your nearest Motorola Computer sales office.

(For Andover, that's probably the Woburn, Mass. office - (617) 932-1195.)
