Well, I've finished grad school and haven't been using this stuff. I hate to see it go, but the down-payment on a house is calling. I really like the 3b1; as far as speed goes, I found it comparable to the Sun-3's at school. ATT 3B1 computer: - 2 Meg RAM - 67 Meg hard disk - WD2010 disk controller chip, allows use of hard disks with more than 1024 cylinders - spare WD1010 disk controller chip - 360K floppy (can r/w MS-DOS disks) - 3 serial ports -- (2 on expansion card) - built-in 1200 baud modem - UNIX version 3.51m kernel - 3.51 development set (compiler,yacc,lex,etc) - HDB uucp - GNU C 1.36 compiler - with source on floppy - GNU bison -- yacc replacement - with source on floppy - GNU plot -- drives 3b1 graphics screen - with source on floppy - Flex 2.1 -- lex replacement - with source on floppy - News 2.11.18 -- this system has been running as a news node for more than a year. - with source on floppy - RN -- news reader - with source on floppy - RCS -- Revision Control System -- like SCCS - ispell -- screen-oriented spelling checker - Complete LaTeX/TeX setup, including: Common TeX 2.9 (virtex/initex) LaTeX 2.09 Drivers for: Epson dot matrix printers HP Deskjet printer 14 Megabytes of fonts---I took every font file off the mainframe TeX installation at school (300 DPI-- usable with any 300 DPI device).
