The top interactive feature for the 740 is 4550 according to the
configurator. 8xx models are faster, but I have not got the exact figures. I
vaguely remember something like 15,000 for the top end. At the same time,
the quoted 2,300 seems a bit too high for a single processor configuration.
I'm very interested in the accurate CPW AS/400-to-S/390 figures. Can anybody
provide them?
