FUJITSU S-7/300 and S-7/300U
The Fujitsu S-7/300U was a workstation equipped with Sun Microsystems’ 64-bit UltraSPARC RISC-based microprocessor. Fujitsu announced the S-7/300U models 140, 170, and 170E in November 1995. The machines were supplied by Sun Microsystems, headquartered in the U.S., on an OEM basis and corresponded to Sun Microsystems’ Sun Ultra 1 line. The Fujitsu S-7/300U models were intended to strengthen the S-7/300 series of high-end workstations announced a month earlier.
The Fujitsu S-7/300, on the other hand, was a workstation running on the 64-bit SPARC64 RISC-based processor, which was jointly developed by Fujitsu and HAL Computer Systems. The S-7/300 was positioned as a high-end Fujitsu-developed workstation in the S family. Fujitsu announced the 140 and 160 models in November 1996 to extend the S-7/300 line.
