Subject: [OT] <10 yo DG Aviion
Date: Saturday, April 10, 1999 6:20
I know this system isn't 10 years old yet, but a company I use to
work for gave me a 88000 based Data General Aviion. I believe it is
an AV 4625 model if I'm reading the back right. DG's site only
talks about P-II and P-III based Aviions with nothing about the
earlier 88000 based ones. Anyone have any web site pointers or
info on these for me? I'm currently hitting each of the main search
sites without much luck.
I got one of those things. 33mhz 88k with 32mb ram and a couple of 500mb
scsi drives.
Not sure if it's the same model, but came loaded with DG unix, which I
eventually managed to get in to.
I did find a couple of sites with a fair bit of gear for the 88k. I'll dig
up the url and mail it to you.
Is your system complete? I lack the mouse and a monitor.
