Olivetti versus Intel Motherboards

[Dennis Miyoshi]

Hello again AT&T system users:

Once again my supervisor has asked a question that only you
can answer.  The question is:  What, if any, functional and
physical differences are there between the Olivetti and Intel
motherboards in the AT&T 6386 (both floor standing and desktop)
machines?  My agency is in the process of adding new 6386
machines that will have the Intel motherboard installed.  We
presently use the Olivetti motherboard and have heard that
there are anomolies between the two products which may affect
the way our UNIX and DOS systems operate.  Any help that can
be sent my way will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
