AST RESEARCH TECHNICAL BULLETIN TB-0071 12-10-84 COMPATIBILITY OF AST PRODUCTS AND THE PANASONIC COMPUTER The attached charts illustrate the level of compatibility of the Panasonic computer with AST PC enhancement products. These results were obtained through performance of the AST Product Compatibility Test, Revision B. The level of compatibility achieved is indicated by one of the following symbols: "Y" - Successfully passed all aspects of the AST Product Compatibility Test. "N" - Did not successfully pass the AST Product Compatiblity Test. "/" - This feature or option does not apply to this product. "*-n" - Conditionally passed the AST Product Compatibility Test - See note "n". "NT" - This feature was not tested. It should be noted that a Personal Computer is a system and that compatibility is effected by all aspects of that system (ie. computer, AST products, other vendor products, software, etc.).
