I have a few questions about the Sequent Symmetry:

What is the latest microprocessor used in the Symmetry?
What's the clock rate?

What configurations do they come in - more specifically, what
is the largest number of processors they support?

What cache coherence scheme is used?  (If possible, be more 
specific than "snooping caches")

Where is a good place to read about technical announcements for
companies like Sequent?   

Feel free to email me, and I'll post if there's sufficient interest.
