The new DECpc(TM) LPv systems give you high performance and second-
generation Windows acceleration in an economical low-profile package.

The new DECpc LPv systems give you fast desktop Windows performance in a 
slim, money-saving low-profile package.

Run Windows Faster
These compact desktop PCs push the graphics speed limit with second-generation 
GUI (graphical user interface) acceleration built into the motherboard -- 
with 1 MB of video memory to support high-resolution SVGA graphics 
(1024x768x256 colors or 640x480x16.7M colors). Complete built-in 
functionality, including up to 256 KB optional secondary cache 
and 64 MB memory expansion, keep the LPv's ISA slots open for 
options. And a LIF (low-insertion-force) processor socket makes it 
easier for you to upgrade your processor. All this performance comes in a 
convenient low-profile case that gives you extra desktop clearance, 
yet still supports three ISA slots and four drive bays.

Three-Year Warranty
The DECpc LPv systems give you the peace of mind you'd expect 
in a computer designed and built by Digital. We design these 
systems to be durable, with metal SIMM clips and steel card cage 
reinforcement. We build them under strict statistical process 
control and rigorous testing to assure many years of reliability. 
And we cover them with our unsurpassed three-year warranty. It's the 
only three-year PC warranty administered by the manufacturer 
instead of a third-party contractor. Which means you'll get better 
quality service. Which, when you need a value-priced PC, makes 
Digital the perfect choice.
