Randy, I think this means that the new OS was installed on all newly ordered systems which shipped beginning in August. You may order it for your 957 using the procedure outlined in the 5.5 Communicator.

Author: Randy Smith <[log in to unmask]> at ~INTERNET Date: 9/18/96 2:42 PM Hello all! Was just browsing the September issue of "HP Chronicle". I found the following passage on the front page in an Article entitled "New Release of MPE/iX debuts at HP World '96" "MPE/iX began shipping in August on HP3000 series 9x8, 9x9KS, and 99x machines." That's okay for our 958, but does this mean that our 957 is not going to be a supported platform?!?! Or is it just an error? - Randy Smith [log in to unmask]
