Software Produce Description (SPD) Product Name: DEC Softwindows/SoftPC for OpenVMS AXP, Version 5.0 45.62.00 Description DEC SoftWindows/SoftPC for OpenVMS AXP, Version 5.0 is a software program that lets your Digital workstation or terminal emulate an IBM[R] PC/AT[R]. A DOS application functions in the DEC SoftWindows environment as it functions on an IBM PC/AT, provided that the application does not require special hardware or a copy-protected diskette. DEC SoftWindows supports MOTIF and the VT220 terminal. This means that DEC SoftWindows can be executed on an OpenVMS system and displayed on a VT220 or a local or remote MOTIF display station using an LK201 or a LK401 keyboard. DEC SoftWindows supports Novell NetWare, LAN Manager, Banyan Vines, the ODI standard, TCP/IP, Winsockets, and LAN Workplace for DOS. DEC SoftWindows includes preinstalled Microsoft Windows 3.1 and MS-DOS 6.21. DEC SoftWindows's performance depends upon various factors as well as the speed of the processor upon which it executes. A DECstation 3000 will deliver compute performance in the 386 to 486 range for both DOS and Windows applications. Applications used with DEC SoftWindows (except those DOS utilities in- cluded with the DEC SoftWindows software) are not Digital licensed, warranted, or supported products. The user must comply with the terms and conditions of each application software license agreement in ef- fect between the user and application supplier. Communications applications may not operate like those on a real PC due to differences in signalling on the Alpha AXP processor and PC processor and the way in which the AXP processor handles interrupts. Many communications programs do work correctly and it is recommended that these programs be tried before purchasing DEC SoftWindows.
