Well the best supported ones are the: |
24 |
|
25 |
DEC Decstations: |
26 |
2100, codename PMAX |
27 |
5000/xx (Personal DECstation), codename MAXine |
28 |
5000/1xx, codename 3MIN |
29 |
5000/200, codename 3MAX |
30 |
5000/2x0, codename 3MAX+ |
31 |
5900/2x0 (identical to the 3MAX+). |
32 |
|
33 |
SGI Indy |
34 |
|
35 |
Some support but still somewhat experimental: |
36 |
|
37 |
SGI Indigo2 |
38 |
SGI O2 |
39 |
SGI Origin 200 and 2000 |
40 |
|
41 |
There are others that might be supported, but probably not |
42 |
very well. The are a bunch of embedded systems and such, |
43 |
but we aren't really focusing on those at the moment. |
