For those sitting on the fence about a system upgrade, GO FOR IT!
We completed our conversion from a pair of model 640s to a pair of
825s the weekend after Thanksgiving. Conversion was reasonably
straight forward (although we wrote our own book).
The speed of the 6-year newer machines and disks is -very-
impressive-- one job that used to take 20-24 hours to run ran in
3-1/2 hours! WHOOO-HOOOO!!
Users are complaining they can no longer submit a job and then go for
coffee-- their jobs are finished before they can roll back their
chairs! (:
I'm afraid users will be submitting jobs more than once-- "It
-always- takes 30 minutes to run. It finished too soon. Something
must be wrong!"
Our next project (after the old machines are rolled out of the room)
will be the cable removal party under the floor-- all those twinax,
v.35, rs232, and other cables. Maybe I can find the screwdriver
blade I lost 6 or 7 years ago. (: If you have any need for v.35 or
rs232 cables, let me know!
