-The '''VAXstation 3100''' was an improved (approximately three-four times faster than its predecessors) [[VAXstation]] intended for demanding graphics applications. It used the second generation of [[VAX]] CMOS chip-set technology, the same as in the [[MicroVAX 3500/3600]] and [[VAXstation 3200/3500]].
+The '''VAXstation 3100''' was an improved (approximately three-four times faster than its predecessors) [[VAXstation]] intended for demanding graphics applications. It was created by adding a [[bit-mapped display]] to a [[MicroVAX 3100 series|MicroVAX 3100]].
-There were three basic models in the VAXstation 3100 range.
+It used the second generation of [[VAX]] CMOS chip-set technology, the same as in the [[MicroVAX 3500/3600]] and [[VAXstation 3200/3500]].
-The [[VAXstation 3100 Model 30/40|VAXstation 3100 Model 30]] was based on the CMOS-1 CVAX and performed at ~2.8[[VUP|VUPs]]. The [[VAXstation 3100 Model 30/40|VAXstation 3100 Model 40]] was the same mainboard but in a slightly taller case, so it could accommodate more storage options.
+There were three basic models in the VAXstation 3100 range, in two generations:
-The second generation [[VAXstation 3100 Model 38/48|VAXstation 3100 Model 38]] was based on the CMOS-2 CVAX. The [[VAXstation 3100 Model 38/48|VAXstation 3100 Model 48]] was again the same mainboard but in a slightly taller case.
+* [[VAXstation 3100 Model 30/40|VAXstation 3100 Model 30]] - based on the CMOS-1 CVAX and performed at ~2.8[[VUP|VUPs]]
+* [[VAXstation 3100 Model 38/48|VAXstation 3100 Model 38]] - second generation, based on the CMOS-2 CVAX
-The final member of the series was the Rigel-based [[VAXstation 3100 Model 76]]. This doubled the performance to 7.6 VUPs.
+* [[VAXstation 3100 Model 30/40|VAXstation 3100 Model 40]] - the same board set as the Model 30, but in a slightly taller [[mounting box]], so it could accommodate more [[mass storage]] options
 Depending on the configuration, it could be a disk-less network node, a stand-alone work-station, or also as a server for up to seven other VAXstations. An optional [[MS-DOS]] 'software coprocessor' allows it to run un-modified PC applications at full speed.
