Do you know what the SPECmark rating of the 3000UX is? Just printed in the magazine UNIX Review (Oct 91 issue): rating is 1.7 In fact, the 3000UX came in a very poor 6th when compared against the following: Nextstation, HP9000/425e, DECstation 3100, Sun-4/20 and a no name clone all running various versions of UNIX. While I realize (and the review stated) that the version of UNIX being run was a beta version….the rating still stands as what readers of UNIX Review will "know" about the 3000UX until they do a new review of it (not likely…but possible).
