[comp.arch] 1 GByte physical memories

eugene@eos.UUCP (Eugene Miya) (10/18/88)

Yet another newsletter reporting the construction of a 1 GB physical
memory machine has crossed my desk.  Boring.

While this may sound impressive in a VAX
or SUN environment (there is (or was) a 1 GB VAX being constructed at
Princeton), commercially available 1GB supers and mainframes have
existed for some time.  So it will also go with our smaller machines
as technology progresses.

Another gross generalization from
