From: Wang Zeep <G.ZEEP%MIT-EECS@MIT-MC.ARPA> Now that it's announced, I can tel you that the uVax II is really neat. It actually can run faster than a 780 for some instructions; macsyma under Franz Lisp (Unix) is faster than on a 780 (if you have enough memory). Now all we need are some prices for the options. I predict that uVax II will be a big seller; I have no idea if it will destroy older Vaxen sales. wz -------
