According to our local sales office, there is no upgrade path. We have a monochrome system in BA23 (small) box. Any info would be appreciated! Shen@GE-CRD.arpa --------

last I heard, there were upgrade pathways from 1. microvax II to II/gpx color or monochrome 2. vaxstation II monochrome to II/gpx color or monochrome I also thought that the difference between a color II/gpx and a monochrome II/gpx was only the monitor... NOTE: because you are in the ba23 small box, you can only have 4 planes of memory due to backplane limitations.... -ed cetron center for engineering design
