SUN or APOLLO ?
APOLLO or SUN ?
Which one is the safest bet for the future ?
I think at a lot of organisations this question is
asked. So reports must exist going in detail
compairing the two workstation families.
Not only technical specs, but especially on
system architecture, network performance,
supported graphics standards etc...3
Which User Interface Management System is
better thought out ?
Is the IBM PC RT (if that's it's name) a alternative ?
Does someone have access to such a report ?
Has a comparison been published in a magazine ?
Has a review ever been posted to the NET ?
If you can give me a pointer to a good report
on the issue or have a opinion yourself, I
would be very thankful to hear from you.
If there's general interest on the subject, I'll
post a compilation of my findings.

PS to start a few rumors:
- unix on APOLLO is kind of emulated and performs
not so good (I heard)...
- why did Apollo turn to the 680X0... ?
- The Apollo Domain network is so much nicer integrated
in the whole system...
