Except for the DEC label, that seems expected.
- If memory serves, Proliant/1600 was a Compaq Pentium II design
- SCO & ISC were the most popular X86 ports prior to SVR4
- Both SCO & ISC used Lachman NFS
The Proliant/1600 was roughly concurrent with Compaq's 1998 acquisition
of DEC, so it seems a little surprising that it would be sold with a DEC
label, potentially confusing customers interested in DEC machines with
non-X86 processors.
