The specific unit we bought (FPS120-AB) to run on a V6-V7-PWB Unix system on an Dec 11/70. The unit was big, heavy, and produced alot of heat. I cannot speak about its usefulness. I understand that FPS now has units like we bought "on a board". When I was dealing with FPS, I thought they were extremely easy to talk to and obtain information from. Myra Hartwig
