Wasn't the /725 slower, or am I misremembering? I do recall that, back when I was at McGill, we had a /780, two /750s, and either a /730 or a /725. The last, when it was decommissioned, we went through the cards for, looking for the CPU. (I learned, much later, that it was a bitslice design, with no single localized CPU.) We found a Z-80 (I think it was probably driving the console tape) and, only half jokingly, suggested that it was a Z-80 running a VAX emulator. I once had an hp300 with all of 5M of RAM. Years ago, when I had it running, thorpej told me it was quite possibly an instance of the slowest machine then supported by NetBSD. (Amusingly, at the same time I had an alpha that he said was possibly an instance of the fastest.) /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mo...@rodents-montreal.org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
