A couple of us are collecting cheap old HP machines for use as a crude parallel
processor, for problems like factoring. We currently have about 20, mostly 712/60
with a few 715s.
I've found a pile of machines with an Appollo nameplate, rather than HP, and a
730 model number. They look a fair bit like a 735, deeper case than 712 or 715,
boards that slide in from the back. The vendor assures me they use a first
generation PA-RISC CPU.
Are these the HP 730 the hardware database mentions? If not, will they run Linux?
