I am contemplating the purchase of another UNIX processor for our department.

We already have a 3B2/310 with 2MB RAM and 72MB hard disk.

I realize that the expanded UNIX PC (3B1) can be expanded to 2MB RAM and
72MB disk with 3 expansion slots for more RS-232 ports, memory and
a cartridge tape drive.  The 3B1 floppy disk holds 320K and the 3B2 720K.

The 3B1 uses a 68010 microprocessor running at 10 MHz, the 3B2 a WE 32100
running at 10MHz.

Other than the differences listed above, what differences are
there between the 3B2/310 and the 3B1 other than cost?
(i.e administrative, processing power, etc)

Please post responses to this newsgroup or send electronic mail to me.

I really appreciate all the responses I have gotten to previous articles
and I am sure this article will be treated the same.
