As I understand it, it's the people/operators who are overloaded, not the
actual hardware systems.

        We also see horror stories about overloaded 911 systems on the
        news once in a while.

        I wonder what percentage of 'reported' horror stories are on
        HPe3000 systems and what percentage are on the other 10%?

        So I'm just getting around to reading my HPWorld and happened upon
an
        excellent article by Winston Prather on page 20.  I like the
attitude and
        the
        pride in the 3000, and I was particularly pleased to read that "over
90
        percent
        of the 911 systems in the United States choose to run on HP e3000
hardware."

        P.S.  I went looking for a URL, but Interex is still listing the
February
        issue
        as current.
