The '''Data General Eclipse''' line of [[computer]]s by [[Data General]] were [[16-bit]] [[minicomputer]]s released in early 1974 and sold until 1988. The Eclipse was based on many of the same concepts as the [[Data General Nova]], but included support for [[virtual memory]] and [[Computer multitasking|multitasking]] more suitable to the small office than the lab. It was also packaged differently for this reason, in a floor-standing case the size of a small [[refrigerator]]. The Eclipse series was supplanted by the 32-bit [[Data General Eclipse MV/8000]] in 1980.
