Briefly, the PC 6300 PLUS, announced by AT&T last week, is a
top-of-the-line MS-DOS computer. It runs MS-DOS up to 25% faster
than the PC/AT, and can run MS-DOS as a process under UNIX System V.
MS-DOS and UNIX tasks can run concurrently, and the user can switch
between them at the touch of a keystroke. A combination of
proprietary hardware and software makes it possible to offer this
concurrency while providing virtually 100% PC-compatibility (even
Flight Simulator runs) and insignificant performance degradation.
Thank you.

Personaly, this machine sounds exciting to me. I intend to check it out, and if both the MS-DOS/IBM compatibility and UNIX V (with news?) work well, I wll GRAB one! Anyone out there with the UNIX PC have any experience trying to get uucp to run? --------------- Unix is (TM) of AT&T > Thank you. > > The AT&T PC 6300 PLUS Team *** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE *** -- Opinions expressed are public domain, and do not belong to Lotus Development Corp. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Simcha-Yitzchak Lerner {genrad|ihnp4|ima}!wjh12!talcott!sesame!slerner {cbosgd|harvard}!talcott!sesame!slerner talcott!sesame!slerner@harvard.ARPA
