HP 9000 Series 700 Models 715/64, 715/80, and 715/100 Workstations
The HP Apollo 9000 Series 700 Model 715/75 Workstation.
The HP Series 700 Models 715/64, 715/80 and 715/100 provided a comprehensive line of desktop workstations designed to meet the most demanding technical and commercial customer requirements. These workstations were based on the 7100LC PA-RISC architecture that supports bi-endian switching for current and future operating systems. Likewise, the 7100LC architecture had built-in MPEG video decompression capable of displaying up to 30 frames per second for current and future multimedia applications without the addition of dedicated, expensive hardware. The Series 700 family also provided increased storage capability by supporting 2GB disk drives internally.
A high-performance graphics subsystem was included with every Model 715-it was integrated on the CPU motherboard for lowest possible cost. This hot, graphics subsystem was binary-code compatible with HP's current family of industry-leading CRX graphics. This meant that applications that ran on HP graphics today will run without change on the graphics. The graphics were designed for optimum GUI and vector performance. The Model 715 included a patented HP Color Recovery technology that enabled it to display true-color images-approximately 8 million simultaneous colors-using 1/3 the Video RAM (VRAM) of the 24-bit graphics system. This resulted in the lowest cost true-color graphics available. Optionally available were a class of graphics accelerators, the HCRX series. Together with the integrated graphics, the graphic subsystems delivered industry-leading performance in both 2D and 3D benchmarks in their price class, providing customers with more graphics choices to suit their budget/needs than previously available on HP workstations.
The Models 715/64, 715/80, and 715/100 were designed for easy installation, upgradability, expansion, and serviceability. This family of computers maked workstations as easy to configure as stereo components, featuring plug-in memory modules, disks, and removable media devices, including an industry-standard 3.5" floppy, especially convenient for PC software that could run in emulation mode. To provide the best possible performance and cost savings for the user, the systems had built-in IEEE 802.3 local area networking (LAN), an external SCSI-2 port, a Centronics interface, two RS-232 serial ports, audio connections, and HIL and PS/2 (mini-DIN) for multiple input device support.
The Models 715/64, 715/80 and 715/100 were the low-cost workstations of choice for a broad range of applications that required fast X Window System performance and 2D/3D wireframe color and solids graphics. They were designed to meet the needs of such workstation applications as electronic computer-aided design (ECAD), mechanical computer-aided design/engineering (MCAD/MCAE), computer-aided software engineering (CASE) as well as many emerging technical and scientific applications. Entry-level surface rendering wss available through HP's 3D surfaces software, PowerShade, while optional HCRX-8, HCRX-8Z, HCRX-24, HCRX-24Z, and CRX-48Z (Model 715/100 only) functionality was offered for solids modeling, visualization, and accelerated rendering requirements.
The Model 715/64, 715/80 and 715/100 shared in HP's rich tradition of standards, advanced transparent networking, robust development tools, and intuitive graphical user interfaces. HP also offered financing alternatives to help get you the equipment you needed then and to upgrade in the future. The Model 700s in the 715 family also provided investment protection to existing, installed base customers by providing an upgrade path.

* Xmark93, PLBwire93, and PLBsurf93 are comprehensive single-number benchmarks developed by the GPC (Graphics Performance Characterization Committee). These benchmarks are better indicators of application performance than such simple graphics primitives as vectors, triangles, and lighted, shaded quadrilaterals. Xmark93 is an indicator of 2D and X Window performance. PLBwire93 is an indicator of 3D wireframe performance. And PLBsurf93 is an indicator of 3D surfaces/ solids modeling performance.
