10/11 What type of hardware does Soda run on? (Is this a FAQ? If so, where
should I be looking?)
\_ /csua/share/doc/machines
\_ wow, i never knew we had such awesome machines in the lounge.
last time i went there were a bunch of huge super-loud old
computers with monochrome monitors.
\_ they're still pretty loud, lots of background hum, but at
least they are color. --jon
\_ What's the deal with all the Ultrix machines? Is it possible
to go to Digital UNIX instead? --dim
\_ DU is not supported on the ultrix boxes' hardware..
\_ Would you like to donate 6 Alpha Workstations to the CSUA
so that we could run wonderful digital unix? --jon
\_ Aren't the DEC 5[05]00's Alphas? I'm not that up on
older DEC hardware. --dim
\_ DecSystem 5(5|0)00's run Dig Unix since they are
Alpha based. DecServer/Stations of the same number
run Ultrix and are MIPS based. Go Dec System Name
Recycling. --phillip
\_ For clarity: MIPS = ultrix, Alpha = DU.
