Hi Denys - we are running 5.5 and it is so stable - and we need nothing
higher - so we'll keep it! I just bought 128MB at ebay for $80 - and someone
on the list was kind enough to offer a few 16MB modules, so we will have
256MB!

You know, the letter that Randall wrote - and the story of John Lee's - I
had a funny thought.

They both hit the nail on the head with proof of stability and trouble free
operation on the 3000.

Our little old orphan HP3000 - the machine that HP no longer wants - will be
running after they have dumped HP-UX and after. IOW it would not surprise me
to learn that the HP3000 has outlived HP ;-)

We will keep running ours...with no plans for migration. Actually I believe
migration isn't the right term in this case...

Don't the French have a wonderful saying - "Living Well Is The Best
Revenge"?

Meanwhile our little 3000 just hums along....

Bill

Hello Bill,

If you intend to move to 6.5, according to following url (watch for
wrapping): http://www.hp.com/products1/mpeix/operating/mpeix65/specs.html

...
BBut the 6.5 release will use slightly more memory on a system. HP believes
this should not be noticeable on systems with at least 128MB of main memory.
If your system has less than 128MB, you may want to consider adding memory
before you update to the 6.5 release. This may not be necessary for
development or test systems with just a few users. HP recommends that
production systems should be configured with at least 128MB of main memory
for optimal performance on the 6.5 release...

Hope this will help !
