I would tend to disagree that x86 can't deliver on performance... Here is a
nice box to run a MPE VM on, but yes admittedly this one is a little short
on internal disk space with a current limit of 2.3TB limit.

Subject: Re: [HP3000-L] MPE Emulator
I'll answer based on what I know about strobe's hp1000 emulator (which ain't
a whole lot...)
the 1000 emulator is a hardware solution. I believe the people wanting to
build an mpe emulator are going in the same direction.
given the reply from sri...i don't think hp-ux is in the picture for mpe.
it would seem that something x86 is involved. but finding it a bit
difficult to think a mpe emulator that is x86 based can deliver any serious
horsepower...i would like to think that something intanium based would be
really interesting 8-} - d
