{\bf Architecture:}
The M64 Series includes the three entries just described.  Here we
discuss features of the other machines in this series.

\vspace {.1in}
\noindent
\begin{flushleft}
  Basic chip used:  Proprietary using CMOS (CPU)\\
  Range of memory sizes available:  1 Mwords to 4 Mwords (64-bit words)\\
  Floating-point unit:  IEEE Standard compatibility\\
\end{flushleft}


\vspace {.1in}
\noindent
{\bf Configuration:}
M64/20-Technological continuation (in CMOS) of 164/264 range.
6 Mflops 64-bit floating-point arithmetic.
M64/30-Similar to above but with 12 Mflop floating-point arithmetic.
The models M64/20 and M64/30 can also be supplied with TCP/IP,
NFS, (IEEE 802.3) Ethernet interfaces and are then termed
the M64/220 and M64/230. They can also be supplied with a VAX
Station II/GPX, disk, cartridge tape, mouse and keyboard, colour
monitor, and graphics processor, they are then termed the M64/320
and M64/330, respectively.
Front-end connection to all DEC VAX under VMS and SUN workstations.

Peripherals:  P64/30 disk subsystem (1-6 controllers, 2-24 drives)
500Mbytes to 6.0GB, plus 2 x 250 Mbytes internal disks.
