I have the Datapro Report on Microcomputers from 1987--same concept and also
well done. Datapro was a McGraw-Hill company (it's part of Gartner now), and
I vaguely recall having electronic access to Datapro material when I was at
BYTE through a corporate network. It was never on BIX.
My suggestion is that you contact Gartner to see if they have archived any
of the Datapro stuff.

Subject: Datapro Reports on MiniComputers ???
Any one familiar with a wonderful series of loose leaf
binders from
DataPro ... "Reports on Minicomputers" circa 1978-80 or so?
I just saw a set and would love to find a set for sale! More info than
I've ever dreamed of ... all in one place .. and covering just about
everything you ever wanted to know about many mini systems. ie: they had
a really full writeup on InterData systems w/info I had never been able
to find [maybe 30 pages of stuff .. all stamped "Not to be Reproduced"]
anyone know if they are still in bix and would object to reproduction?
Thanks, Craig Smith
