Message-ID: <118@rna.UUCP> Date: 27 Jan 88 19:38:49 GMT Organization: Rockefeller University - Neurobiology Lines: 17 Does anyone have an estimate of the usable I/O bandwidth of a PC/AT (or 386 PC), based on real experience ? In particular, throughput from DMA parallel I/O user device to PC memory. Also what is the propensity for data lates ? Has anyone had experience with VME to PC-bus converters in this regard ? Thanks.
