Yeah, I'll bet the entire Amiga line will obsolete the dn10000
and its offspring.  You seem to assume the Apollo/HP will develop
nothing beyond the 68030.  We all know the 68040 is just around
the corner pending some legal issues.  Since Apollo has developed
an excellent risc architecture in PRISM, and the rest of the industry
is selling desktop risc, common sense dictates that Apollo will
develope a risc desktop.  I mean why would HP buy Apollo if they
didn't think they could learn anything from the people in Chelmsford ?
Nobody has that much idle cash.

I am still laughing...

I guess next year the Amiga will put all the CRAY YMPs out to
pasture!!!!

Get serious.
