The Harris while seemingly a reasonably priced and performing machine is wierd. The architecture is incredibly strange and the 24 bit word size doesn't help. Harris does have a C compiler for it but they don't plan on really doing UNIX for it. There network plans include NETIX (NSC Hyperchannel) but not TCP/IP. Their current operating system VULCAN looks like something from the sixties. It is even less usable than EXEC8. -Ron

And to prepare a program for execution, you use the VULCANIZE program. No
kidding..
