"Tahoe' was the model name of the CCI system that they had to port the
4.3 system to, which had previously been almost exclusively a Vax-based
system.  Because of hardware architectural differences, they had to make
a bunch of changes so that it would run on the Tahoe, thus the name of
the release.

I'm told that the newer one is called 'Reno' because running it is 
taking a real gamble.  Snicker.
