My undergrad school had a Stardent with four 68k processors.
It ran some sort of Unix. They used it for simulating
nonlinear optics. I took posession of the manual before they
discarded the whole system. Property accounting bureaucracy
prevented me from keeping system hardware. -kurt

Interesting - any idea what model? I didn't think they ever used anything
except MIPS and i860 CPUs in their stuff. (I've had someone contact me
recently about an [St]ardent Titan machine they have available, but I'm still
trying to work out the logistics of moving* it - it's not exactly a small beast)
* If anyone here ever does a Colorado -> Minnesota run with a van/truck and
might be able to help out, yell :-)
