Summary: another amazing deal?

Has anybody heard of, or actually have one of the Symmetric 375 machines
from SYMMETRIC Computer Systems, San Jose?  I just got info from them today
from BYTE... what they offer seems incredible... it is a portable box with
a "750" inside running BSD 4.2 with all utilities... everybody's favorite
languages  f77, Pascal LISP PROLOG BASIC apl, and even C... it has half the
speed of a 750 (hence the name "375", a 50 meg Winchester drive... four
serial ports... AND, you can take it home at night!  They sell it for
$4995 (about $9000 with ethernet) and their number is:

		408 279 0700
