Apologies if it's a common question or a sore point, but I'm new to the list
and haven't found a satisfactory explanation on any FAQ.
Why has no progress been made on support for Prestoserve SIMMs (for any
model, although my specific interest is the DS5000/2xx)? Is there a
technical information (non-)releasability issue, a lack of test hardware, or
just a lack of interest?
If it's a question of hardware availability I'm willing to donate a
DS5000/2xx 1Mb Presto SIMM - with ULTRIX 4.5 and license PAKs if needed - to
someone who stands a reasonable chance of getting results. Otherwise I could
have a bash at it myself, although there'd be a steep learning curve and I
have limited time to spend.
