I used an IPC at home for about 2 years. It's a GREAT little HP-UX
box. ( or should I say it WAS a great little HP-UX box ) The only
problem with the IPC was marketing and updates. For some reason 
the marketing yoyo's thought the IPC was a replacement for the 85-
it wasn't; it never will be, and it died because of it.

The IPC was way ahead of it's time... It's a shame HP marketing and
politics killed the product! The IPC (with the program development 
rom) did all I wanted, not fast; but, it did it. 

I will make one BOLD statement, " the IPC is a hunk of junk without
the Program Development Rom"...
