Is anybody out there using VAXstation II's with the GPX option? My group is interested in getting one, and we'd like to hear about the problems and/or successes people are having with them. In particular, 1) Is it worth getting a color system? If so, is it also worth getting the "enhanced" color system instead of the "basic" system? 2) Have VAXstation-II/GPX's been shipped with VMS instead of Ultrix? We have uses for both operating systems. 3) (This should really be #1...) Is it worth getting the GPX option at all? Does it enhance performance enough to justify the $$ to buy it? 4) Any suggestions on optimal memory configuration? Is 3 megabytes enough memory to take advantage of the extended display capability?
