As this system replaced an 1130, it was quite an event internally, and a lot of company bigwigs came around for a tour. One VIP had a cup of Coke; when he was in the machine room, he put it on top of the RM03's, and then knocked it over with his elbow. The service personnel were quite impressed by how efficiently the RM03 was as a centrifuge: there was a nice, thin coating of syrup over all the inside of the drive (and the pack itself, of course). -- Mike Lutz Rochester Institute of Technology, Rochester NY UUCP: {allegra,seismo}!rochester!ritcv!mjl CSNET: mjl%rit@csnet-relay.ARPA
