Hello out there!

Can anybody give me an approximate description of a Ridge 110?
I'm interested in: price (assume it is configured with a 100mb disk
drive and a 9-track tape; plus software), floating point performance
(floating point number crunching will be the primary application),
expansion/upgrade options, support, general user satisfaction, etc.
How does it compare, let's say, to a MicroVAX II?

Also, I heard that Ridge sells its own FORTRAN compiler.  Anyone know
anything about this?

Please reply directly to me.

Thanks very much..Yoram

P.S. Does anyone know where Ridge is located, so I can look up their
phone number?
