Funny that: Chen Systems Inc swore to us it didn’t have specifications or pricing for its promised iAPX-86-based symmetric multiprocessing boxes running UnixWare2.0, enhanced with stuff like input-output load balancing, system administration and maintenance and on-board bus technology that has been carried over from his failed Supercomputing Systems Inc outfit. Apparently an administrative error led to model numbers, specifications and pricing finding their way to InformationWeek . The CS-1000 Model 10 comes with from two to eight Pentiums, 64Mb memory, 1Gb disk, three PCI and four EISA slots and goes from $75,000 to $142,000. The Model 50 has 128Mb RAM, six PCI slots, four EISA slots and goes from $120,000 to around $200,000.
