Hi Jon Thanks for this, but as Wim and Adrian have pointed out - I can’t have been referring to a PS300 (maybe it was one of the ESV series, I don’t know. I might have remembered if I’d actually had any useful phases and done any building… by the time that happened we’d moved onto SGI machines) because they had the set-up your pictures are of.
However, these pics may still be of use to me. Thanks everyone who has replied to this - I knew this would be the right place to ask!
