1902.1Alcor Primo: V6.2-1H3, or V7.1 or laterXDELTA::HOFFMANSteve, OpenVMS EngineeringWed Mar 19 1997 08:5127
   If you are in workstation marketing, you will definitely want to
   acquire the "CPU Operating System Versions and Release Dates Table
   & Flowchart" document from COMET (URL "http://comet.alf.dec.com/"),
   as this document contains a wealth of useful information.

   You will also want to become familar with the WEB integrated
   repository: http://webir.das.dec.com/.

   The AlphaStation 600A 5/500 and other EV56 systems generally require
   OpenVMS V6.2-1H3, or V7.1 or later.  (Alcor Primo is the code name,
   and the OpenVMS plan-of-record confirms the need for V6.2-1H3 or
   V7.1 or later.  Like other V6.2-1Hx hardware, V7.0 is not supported.)

   Depending on the graphics controller, Open3D may be required.

   DECwindows Motif is also required.

   These folks neglected to include the minimum version information for
   Windows NT, UNIX and OpenVMS in the information published to date...

For Windows NT, the minimum OS version is V4.0.

If you plan on updating the OS to NT V4.0 SP2, please read note #1900
before applying the update.
