Re: Xerox Dolphin (alias 1100?)
Yes, the Dolphin is being sold by XEROX EOS as the 1100 "Interlisp Machine."
It is about $60K, last I heard (someone at Rand or ISI correct me here.)
It is also about 3 times as slow as the Dandelion (what's inside the Star),
according to very reliable people at PARC; that is surprising, since the
Star costs little by comparison ($6K in parts costs, I've heard.)

Also, XEROX is now putting up Smalltalk on the Star, for internal use.
I have no idea, and I suppose neither does XEROX, if they'll ever release
it.
