* A very High resolution monochrome video card with blitter and hardware text line and arc drawing capability, was designed for CAD applications, based on the NEC µPD7220 chip designed for graphic terminals, but was also used by some personal computers like the DEC Rainbow, and notably also for the Tulip System I.

DEC initially started work on Alpha as a way to re-implement their VAX series, but also employed it in a range of high-performance workstations.

When DEC introduced the PDP-1, they also mentioned larger machines at 24, 30 and 36-bits, based on the same design.

DEC also believed he brought Mica's code to Microsoft and sued.

They were also completely compatible with the DEC KL10, and ran all KL10 binaries ( including the operating system ) with no modifications at about 2-3 times faster than a KL10.

It can perform up to 8 times as fast as a DEC KL-10, and it also supports more physical memory, a larger virtual address space, and more modern input / output devices.

A port to the PRO for RSTS / E was also done internal to DEC, but was not released.

A wide range of peripherals were available ; some of them were also used in other DEC systems like the PDP-8 or PDP-10.

It is also known as IRAS 18184-1302, and located at RA: 18: 21: 16 DEC :-13: 01: 27, near M16 in Serpens Cauda.

DEC also sold versions of the card, the BM792-Yx series, pre-programmed for many standard input devices by simply omitting the unneeded diodes.

DEC people cringed when they heard " TWENEX ", but the term caught on nevertheless ( the written abbreviation " 20x " was also used ).

DEC is also used in the prevention of dog heartworm Dirofilaria immitis.

The technical programs also lead to a DEC.

Later DEC computers, such as their VAX systems, were also popular platforms on which to run Unix ; the first port to VAX, UNIX / 32V, was finished in 1978 ( the VAX was only released in October 1977 ).

As an aside, DEC UEG's main VAX, named decvax, was also one of the central nodes in the UUCP and Usenet network.

In 1998, Compaq also acquired the much larger Digital Equipment Corporation and inherited its DEC Alpha RISC servers with OpenVMS and Tru64 Unix customer bases.

Most computing platforms and microprocessor instruction set architectures are also supported, like x86 ( IA-32 and x86-64 ), PPC ( PowerPC ), ARM, DEC Alpha, SPARC, and MIPS.

DEC had also released captured beavers on the properties, who built dams and created new wetlands.

The company also bought DEC 3000 AXP workstations, packaged them with the Denali, and sold the integrated product as the Kenai workstation.

DEC is also responsible for the wildlife conservation project Western Shield.

Support was also included for SUPERVISORY mode which made RSTS the first DEC operating system with this capability.

DECnet was also supported as well as remote diagnostics from field service technicians at the RDC in Colorado Springs, Colorado ( a DEC subscription service ).

The DCL command structure between DEC operating systems also contributed to the familiar look and feel:

MUMPS was developed with the support of a government research grant, and so MUMPS was released to the public domain ( no longer a requirement for grants ), and was soon ported to a number of other systems including the popular DEC PDP-8, the Data General Nova and the DEC PDP-11 and the Artronix PC12 minicomputer.

The compiler was first released as Compas Pascal for CP / M, and then released on November 20, 1983 as Turbo Pascal for CP / M ( including Apple II computers fitted with Z-80 SoftCards and the DEC Rainbow ), CP / M-86, and MS-DOS machines.

SGI, Sun Microsystems, HP, DEC and IBM all released framebuffers for their computers.

The first native VAX UNIX product from DEC was Ultrix-32, based on 4. 2BSD with some non-kernel features from System V, and was released in June 1984.

While the converged Unix from the Sun and AT & T alliance ( that spawned the Open Software Foundation or OSF ), released late 1986, put BSD features into System V, DEC took the best from System V and added it to a BSD base.

Despite resistance from many in Symbolics, Macsyma was released for DEC VAX computers and Sun workstations using Berkeley's Franz Lisp in the early to mid 80s.

The microprocessor was never released, since the Alpha line of microprocessors was discontinued shortly before HP acquired Compaq which had in turn acquired DEC. Dean Tullsen's work was also used to develop the Hyper-threading ( Hyper-threading technology or HTT ) versions of the Intel Pentium 4 microprocessors, such as the " Northwood " and " Prescott ".

The DECstation was a brand of computers used by DEC, and refers to three distinct lines of computer systems — the first released in 1978 as a word processing system, and the latter ( more widely known ) two both released in 1989.

In contrast to the VAX and the later DEC Alpha architectures, the DECstation 3100 and family were specifically designed and built to run a UNIX system, Ultrix, and no version of the VMS operating system was ever released for DECstations.

Shortly prior to the release of the DEC Alpha systems, a port of OSF / 1 to the DECstation was completed, but it was not commercially released.

At the time, MEDUSA was available on the then newly released 32bit so-called super mini computers, whose most prominent distributors were DEC ( VAX ) and Prime Computer.

DEC had released their Alpha processor and were less interested in promoting a competing architecture.

The product was released by DEC who named it the DEC SEAL product.

The X Window System was one of the earliest systems to include support for an arbitrary image as wallpaper via the xsetroot program, which at least as early as the X10R3 release in 1985 could tile the screen with any solid color or any binary-image X BitMap file .< ref > X10R3, X. org downloads,: xsetroot program attributed to " Tony Della Fera, DEC ", dated " 28-Nov-84 ".</ ref > In 1989, a free software program called xgifroot was released that allowed an arbitrary color GIF image to be used as wallpaper, and in the same year the free xloadimage program was released which could display a variety of image formats ( including color images in Sun Rasterfile format ) as the desktop background.

The X Window System had been newly released as a result of collaborative efforts between DEC and MIT.

It was released in May 1975 and, like its direct predecessor, targeted the DEC PDP-11 family of minicomputers.

The combination of architectural innovations proved superior to competitors and the " 11 " architecture was soon the industry leader, propelling DEC back to a strong market position.

A combination of diethylcarbamazine ( DEC ) and albendazole is also effective.
