available in the DECpc LPx family. These exciting new PCs give 
you no-compromise performance with fast VESA-VL bus graphics 
and full expandability - all at a great price. 

Exceptional Value
The feature-packed LPx PCs boost overall performance in a variety of ways, 
starting with a full range of the latest i486 Intel processors. A 
direct upgrade path to next-generation Pentium OverDrive processors 
and room for plenty of cache add to your performance options. Where 
the LPx really stands out is its two VESA-VL bus slots, which give 
you room for high-speed industry-standard local bus options. Your 
choice of high-performance VESA-VL bus GUI accelerators occupies one 
of these slots; the other is available for options. Four additional, 
available ISA slots give you plenty of room to expand and customize.

Three-Year Warranty
And the DECpc LPx 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 Windows workstation, makes 
Digital the perfect choice.
