(Pardon me while I spit this shoe leather out of my mouth. Cough.)

I was wrong wrong wrong.  Sun smells like a rose and I smell, well...

No one at Sun called anyone at Maryland with anything except
pleasantness.  Even in response to my last, false, message, the local
folks were nice.  I was severely misinformed.  Sincerest apologies to all.

To repeat the true parts:  Sun delivered 13 workstations to the U
of Maryland ahead of schedule and in perfect condition.  The plugged
in, came up, and have been running for 3 months non-stop without a
failure.  The faculty here (some of whom were skeptical they would ever
want a personal workstation) are being won over.  (*I* always knew they
were great, but I was a minority faculty opinion before).
