>I disagree with this completely. One of the things MPE customers like >most about the HP3000 is how little operator intervention is required. >(Can someone back me up on this?) I'd be happy to! In a former life, I sold HP3000s into small professional offices where no one was computer literate (and I mean absolutely no one). These offices could successfully run their operations with a receptionist running the computer. Even when problems occured they could handle them. I doubt that a receptionist could successfully rebuild a filesystem on a UNIX machine that was corrupted during a power failure without significant guru help.
