<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt">Thanks Greg,, rants are allowed, meanwhile back in the in the real world
we are have been in similar situations where we have to wait and pray
that replacement parts can be found, or we rob parts from test boxes.
Migration is not an option for a long long list of reasons, replacement
to a new application is preferred. The time-line to these new
applications is not directly in our control so in the meantime we are
looking at options to reduce the risk associated to the hardware. This
is one option we are considering looking into.<br />
<br />
Craig...I would love to get more of an update on your experience, I will
contact you again if you don't mind. For the group (HP3000 environment)
, was there any "issues" one should consider. Also what platform, o/s
version are you running.<br />
<br />
regards<br />

<br />
I have had Stromasys up and running on a core i7 chip for several months. It is running at about 240mhz with multiple Processors.<br />
<br />
It is networked, DSLINE and DSCOPY work. I can compile (in any language) and transfer the compiled program to a "real" HP3000. It works great.<br />
<br />
If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them.<br />
<br />
Also, I can give you access to the system so you can see for yourself. The system is quite solid.<br />
<br />
Regards,<br />

<p><span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">I have been watching the recent discussion regarding "the Death" of Powerhouse and was wondering if any of you out there have looked closely at the Stromasys offering of a Virtualised Hp3000 (MPE/ix). As hardware (availability / support etc ) is a key factor which brings the "migration" discussion to the fore, virtualisation, on paper, offers some solution. Understand that its just released, has anyone investigated or heard any negatives/positives of going down this route.</span></p>
