To reiterate what others have already posted to this list, the cancellation
of the workstation product line does not affect the CAChe Group or the
Advance Technologies Group that produces the RP88 co-processor for the 
Macintosh II. CAChe is doing extremely well, with a product that is very 
competetive (prices range from $12K to 50K).  CAChe molecular modeling 
worksystems can use one or more of the 33, 25, or 20 MHz RP88K co-processors.
