What may (or may not) be a good idea is to do a comparison between the
various workstation level machines:
	Prices, HD, RAM, (dare i say it!) MIPS, freebie stuff

Machines which come to mind:
	Amiga 3000UX, AmigaStation :-)
	DEC DECStation 2100, 5000,
	HP-Apollo 9000/400,
	NextStation, NextCube,
	Sun SparcStation, SLC, IPC, 1+,

I suppose a magazine like 'WorkStationWorld' [ :-) ] would be what we
want...

I liked the AmigaStation, Slab/Pizza box, 3000 motherboard w/ ethernet
card, 200MB HD, (faster than now) X server (maybe R4 will do...)

Hmmmm, this sounds like a smart X-Terminal, eg:
	TekXpress: 68030, 34020, X11R4 server, gray & colour
	NCD: ?, NCD-ASIC, X11R4 server, gray & colour

As Peter da Silva asked: "Where are all these machines aimed?"
