698.0. "21164PC ordering information?" by OTOOA::JPOND () Tue May 27 1997 19:35

    Hi there,
    I've searched around and found a few press releases etc. describing the
    21164PC and the reference motherboard, but I have yet to come across
    orderable part numbers.
    
    Are there such things? Can someone provide me a pointer?
    
    On another tack, I notice a reference to both "SX" and "LX" versions of
    the reference motherboard..could someone provide a quick description of
    what this nomenclature means?
    
    Thanks in advance,
    Jim

    the url in the last reply is a staging machine inside the firewall
    and is not the best place to pull docs from...  sometimes what you will
    find there is stuff that is pending review and not approved yet...
    
    better to use the documentation library on the external server
    http://ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/info/semiconductor/literature/
    dsc-library.html
    
    there's also a form if you'd like hardcopy docs sent to you at 
    http://www.digital.com/semiconductor/dsc-order.html
