"Processor speed" is irrelevant and would be misleading. The AS/400 architecture is so different from PCs and other machines that to compare by MHz rating is meaningless. The AS/400 also uses multiple co-processors (in all their boxes, not just the multi-processor boxes), so it's not a fair comparison to a PC where almost everything passes through the CPU.

You must be looking for a MHz number because you want to compare an AS/400 to some other box where MHz ratings are common. A more useful approach might be to tell us what you are trying to compare, and then you'll get feedback from people that are doing what you are analyzing. So, if you're looking to support 500 users on an Exhange box versus Domino, you'll get some feedback on that question.

Good luck.

Subject: Processor speed

I have a 9406-720 207E with processor feature #2063 and interactive #1504 2-way (810 CPW)

I would like to know what the speed rateing is on the processor in MHz not in CPW's how and where can I find out.

I would also like to konw what speed my CD-ROM drive is. It is a #6321 Model 2

Thanks Chris
