I was recently loaned a CODATA 3300 system, which is apparently a 68000 workstation. It currently does not work very well, and I was wondering if anyone on the net has any experience with this system. It supposedly runs a version of V7 Unix called UNISYS. Anyway, if anyone wants to exchange some information about CODATA systems, or can tell me if the company (Contel CODATA, formally in Sunnyvale, CA) still exists, please mail me. If there is interest, I will summarize to the net. I and my system thank you.

Anyway, they're out of business, so if your problem is a hardware problem, you're most likely out of luck. The software is UniPlus+, which is a product of UniSoft, who is very much in business. Their corporate headquarters are now in Emeryville, CA. The V7 Unix on your CODATA box is way out of date now; UniSoft's product now is System V, with many BSD enhancements. If your problem is a software problem, you may be able to get some help from UniSoft. Hope this helps. -- Will Nelson uucp: {decvax!decwrl}!pyramid!oliveb!cygnet!will Cygnet Systems, Inc. 601 West California Avenue Sunnyvale, CA 94086-4831 (408) 773-0770
