Don't overlook the Balance machines made by Sequent. The Balance 8000 is widely installed and accepted. It has a true multi-processing UNIX kernel. We just ordered a Balance 8000 with 8 processors, to be upgraded to a Balance 21000 with 12 processors in June. A maximum of 30, 32032, 10 mhz processors can be attached to the Balance 21000.

The Encore Multimax is a real machine which, from the limited reports that I've seen, does indeed work as advertised. Then again, it seems that practically every day when I open the business section of the Globe it reports on more high ranking people at Encore leaving the company. Check out your vendor when you check out their product. Helpfully, John Levine, ima!johnl
