This is not IBM PC based, but a "non-product" developed specifically for programs like MIT's "Project Athena." Whether it will ever turn into anything real is an open question. -- /Steve Dyer decvax!bbncca!sdyer sdyer@bbncca.ARPA

I think you ought to check it out again. NSC was planning GENIX (especially for SYSTEM V) for the 16032 and 32032 before ATHENA. They seemed to feel it was a real product, even if the IBM PC with 16032 co-processor is, indeed, a non-product. I wouldn't leave National looking unreal on account of the peach. I was working for an outfit that bid on the GENIX work about a year ago (in Boston). The opinions expressed are mine, not necessarily those of NSC, TSI, MIT, nor Project Athena.
