Can I get opinions on VXT configurations for MCC use: 1) Minimal/optimal VXT screen sizes/types: (15/17/19, mono, gray, color) 2) Additional memory above the as-shipped 4MB 3) Adequacy of performance (I've seen note 2340 - anything more recent?) This will be the sole MCC display/control device for a state-wide TCP/IP network running on Vitalink and Stratacom boxes. THANKS (in advance) Norm

Either the readership is shy about responding (fat chance) or we're all using NCD X-terminals or we're all dumb and happy with our own VAXstations and don't know or care about X-terminals or I haven't asked the right question quite right yet. Is there any opinion to be shared or are all X-terminals equally OK for MCC? THANKS Norm | |||||

Hi there,
Ok, I'll take a stab at it...disclaimer, I'm new to MCC, just
working on a prototype for a customer. Our configuration is:
VAXserver 3900/64mg Memory
2 RF71 disks
1 VT1300/SPX/8mg Memory
I setup Elan for my Iconic Map, (EWS/DECwindows), it's a long
story, but basically, it was hardware that had been purchased... We
recently ran a demo using a 4000/VLC...buy the 4000! There are no
limitations, that I know of, but there are alot of "flukey" things that
we see from time to time, in a very small Network... 2 areas, about 75
total systems... From time to time the Xterminal doesn't boot... The
performance, prior to the memory caching, is...limited. No "techy
stats" to back up my words...just gut and experience. I've been using
it for 3-4 months. Another disclaimer however, tomorrow I upgrade to
V1.2...so stay tuned. Hope this is helpful.
