<DIV>Hi Ted:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>No, not in this case. The ACE-10 and the ACE-25 (which Park has) are
Intel DOS based systems. Everything else including the ACE-Micro used DEC
LSI-11 series processors. Eary units were 11/23 cpu's and later "Turbo"
units were 11/73 cpu's. Operating system was RT-11. Ampex never had
their own operating system.</DIV>
