XGC compilers require modest host computers. As a minimum we suggest the following:

bullet50 MHz CPU
bullet32M Byte RAM
bullet1G Byte hard disk
bullet9600 bits-per-second serial interface for connection to target
bulletVT100-compatible terminal

The most cost-effective platform is an IBM PC running Linux. We propose the following:

bulletHardware. IBM PC (or compatible) with Pentium 133MHz, 32MB of RAM, 1.6 GB hard disk drive, network interface, two serial interfaces and 1024 by 768 graphics.
bulletOperating System. Caldera OpenLinux Version 3.1.

You may also use an earlier version of Caldera OpenLinux, or Linux from other vendors. (We currently use Red Hat Version 8.0)

If you wish to use a Sun platform, then we recommend the following:

bulletHardware. Sun SPARC 5 or better, with 32M Bytes RAM, 1G Byte hard disk, 17 inch monitor.
bulletOperating System. Solaris 2.6 or above with Open Windows or the Common Desktop Environment.

If you wish to use Microsoft Windows, then we recommend the following:

bulletHardware. IBM PC (or compatible) with Pentium 400MHz, 128MB of RAM, 10 GB hard disk drive, network interface, two serial interfaces and 1024 by 768 graphics.
bulletOperating System. MS Windows 2000 or above.

Our C/C++ and Coral 66 products will also be available for the Apple Mac platform. You will need Mac OS X. If this is your platform, please let us know.
