< There is a group here which is hoping to purchase a 30-50 Mega FLOP array processor to hang on a Vax(hopefully a 790) in the next year. I would very much like to know of anyone's good/bad experience with the different processors which are available. We do not have any experience with these beasties and would appreciate any/all comments. Rumors or hearsay is ok too as long as I know that it is such. If you know of new products which are about to be announced or are not well known I'd like to hear about them. For the sake of argument lets assume that the Vax will be running Un*x(Ultrix??? ). Please excuse this posting to unix-wizards, but I want to make sure this message makes it to ARPA land and I don't believe that net.wanted is gatewayed. regards, Mike Brown National Solar Observatory Tucson, Arizona (602) 325-9249 UUCP: {akgua,allegra,arizona,decvax,hao,ihnp4,lbl-csam, sdcarl,sdcsvax,seismo,trwspf,unc,utastronomy,ut-sally} !kpno!brown ARPA: kpno!brown@LBL-CSAM CSNET: brown@arizona
