Tektronix Inc, still pushing hard in its effort to make its mark in the workstation market, has added a new low-end model to its XD88 family of Moto2oea 88000-based RISC systems, first introduced in April. The XD88/10, rated at 17 MIPS, has up to 32Mb memory and 3Gb disk, a VME bus, and runs the Beaverton, Oregon company’s Utek System V implementation of Unix. Shipping in the first quarter of next year, the new machine costs $15,450 with 8Mb memory, 156Mb disk and colour monitor. The XD88 family also includes the two-dimensional 88/20 and three dimensional 88/30 workstations, as well as the XD88/01 applications processor and 88/05 file server.
