This is interesting.  All of the articles that I have read show
Apollo fairly far ahead of HP in the area of context switching
and multi-tasking.  The Apollo DN4500 even context switched
better than the HP370 and 390 minis.

Say what?  I've never heard of either an HP370 or an HP390 mini.  I do
have an HP9000 model 370 *workstation* on my desk, though.  Is that one 
of the models you meant?
