THis looks like a very nice system. Note this is the 16-bit stack
architecture hardware part of the 3000 family. Not the 32-bit PA-RISC
incarnation. Which makes it that much more appealing. However, the Series
30 is s-l-o-w. No mention of software, not sure if the Series 30 can run
MPE-V, maybe only MPE-IV and earlier? Also does not mention if the disc
drives have packs, I suspect they do. Also the 7925s are 125MB each with
removable packs.
