We are looking for some input on which UNIX box to purchase. Our requirements are : Reasonably Fast, i.e. at least 12 MIPS Support for Lots of DISK, i.e. 5GB+ X or some reasonable graphics package available and SUPPORTED Total Package (i.e. with Disk, 9 Track, keyboard, etc.) price around $100K Our applications include : Atmospheric Modeling, Signal Processing Image Processing (you get the picture...) We currently use Suns for the most part, and are evaluating a Solbourne (it's here right now) but were wondering what other machines we should consider, i.e. IRIS, Mascomp, Titan...etc. If you actually have one of these machines, we'd be interested in hearing from you. (is there another group we should have posted to?? We really didn't see one, hope this was correct 'net-manners') Please e-mail, If there is interest, I will summarize. 'Later -- Earl D.
