Lines: 10 Actually, since there are now a number of more powerful machines available at lower cost, one wonders how successful this tactic will actually be. The new wave of 88000 based workstations (which do an honest 17+ MIPS) are available with Unix, monitor, etc. for approximately the same cost. I know, I managed the DG AViiON AVX 400 development here at DG which fits in this class. Anyone who has ever used a machine of this class will never want to move back to the (now) relatively slow '030. Robert Cousins
