Well, I've been more than pleasantly surprised (if not
somewhat overwhelmed) by the volume of e-mail I've received
regarding the new AT&T WE 32100 Microprocessor chipset
offering, after my initial posting. I also understand the
operators at the 800 phone number have noticed a significant
increase in calls for data sheets. Kudos to the power of
the net.
I suggested to one of the net administrators that a
"net.micro.we32100" be established. He replyed that we
needed to show more interest from others in netland. Well,
its AT&T's policy not to reveal the names of its customers
so, if anyone out there working with our chipset (and there
are quite a few!) wants to talk about it please cast your
vote. If you're just a casual observer who'd like to see
such a newsgroup, your vote counts too.
In the interim, I'm going to post a series of short
technical articles, each describing a member of our chipset
in detail, followed by descriptions of our Hardware-Software
Development System and Evaluation Board. One person asked
about our VME/UNIX board that was mentioned at the press
conference, I'll see if I can release some info.
For those who sent resumes, thanks. And yes, we are hiring
(watch net.jobs).
Once again, if you want data sheets feel free to call (800)
372-2447.

CHIP (sorry!)
For those in Canada or elsewhere who couldn't get
through, try (201) 771-2601.

Why does it cost extra to get an unlisted number? (Don't tell me that AT&T != the operating companies anymore, this policy started *before* 1/1/84) >For those who sent resumes, thanks.
