The following is excerpted from a PARC Forum announcement sent to all users of the Xerox message system. It was an open forum, so this is public information. ----- The Xerox 1100 Scientific Information Processor, currently being marketed by Xerox EOS to the research community, is a Dolphin processor running Interlisp-D. Not only does this configuration provide comfortable interactive performance, but the availability of Interlisp on such a low cost machine makes economically viable the widespread use of knowledge based technology, such as the deployment of intelligent servers in a distributed network environment. ----- (Xerox EOS = Xerox Electro-Optical Systems of Pasadena, Calif.) The "Dolphin" is the same processor used in the Xerox 5700 laser printer. This is NOT the "Dandelion" processor used in the Xerox Star. /Ron ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
