• X terminal was essentially a diskless VAXstation 3100 Model 30, running the VAXELN operating system.
• The V-11 was proprietary to DEC and was only used in their VAXstation 8000 workstation.
• Mariah was used in the VAX 6000 Model 500, MicroVAX 3100 Model 80 and VAXstation 4000 Model 60.
• When it was introduced it was about three times as fast as the VAXstation 3100 which was introduced at about the same time.
• The PWS was positioned to compete with the IBM Personal System / 2 ( PS / 2 ) and the DEC Vaxstation 2000.
• The enclosure used by the DECstation 3100 and 2100 is identical to the enclosure used by the VAXstation 3100 as these systems use a mechanically identical system module.
• The high-end VAX 8600 replaced the VAX-11 / 780 in October 1984 and was joined by the entry-level MicroVAX minicomputers and the VAXstation workstations in the mid-1980s.
• The "'VAXstation "'was a family of workstation computers developed and manufactured by Digital Equipment Corporation ( DEC ) using processors implementing the VAX instruction set architecture ( ISA ).
• Digital initially expected TURBOchannel to gain widespeard industry acceptance due to its status as an ARC standard, although ultimately Digital was the only major user of the TURBOchannel in their own DEC 3000 AXP, VAXstation 4000 systems.
• Studying the system throughput as a whole, they estimated that the resulting system would not be terribly fast, but would be faster than an X Server running on the VAXstation 2000, which was considered barely usable.
• Prior to the introduction of DEC VAXstation systems in the 1980s, the operating system was exclusively used and managed from CRT terminals, such as the VT100, which provide serial data communications and screen-oriented display features.
• The NCR 5380 also made a significant appearance in Digital Equipment Corporation's VAX computers, where it was featured on various Q-Bus modules and as an integrated SCSI controller in numerous MicroVAX, VAXstation and VAXserver computers.
• Having experimented with an X Server on the VAXstation 2000, the team concluded that serial links would not be fast enough to support X Windows, and made the decision to equip the design with Ethernet as its primary communications system.
• At its introduction, the 68000 was first used in high-priced systems, including multiuser microcomputers like the WICAT 150, early Alpha Microsystems computers, terminals like Digital Equipment Corporation's VAXstation 100 and Silicon Graphics'IRIS 1000 and 1200.
