Ah, as you can see I am just learning this side of thigs. Thanks for
educating me.
Would you care to comment on whether, from a quantity of points, and
speed of throughput basis, the AB Stations are more powerful, or less
powerful than Inegrator 30's?
BTW is the AB Station the same hardware as what AB calls the
Information Coprocessor (Intel based), or is the Control Coprocessor
(Motorola based)?
