Texas Instruments Inc reckons that although the Apple Macintosh based microExplorer offers only about half the performance of the more company’s Explorer II, it is nearly 25% faster – and $10,000 cheaper – than the Symbolics 3650 workstation when running the Gabriel Benchmark: when running Allegro Lisp, it is also 300% faster than a Mac II without the Explorer co-processor.
