Yup.  Sun already has something, err, uhh, rather interesting.  It's called
the Sun 4.  It's competing with big Vaxen.  I don't know what Apollo is
doing, but I'm sure that they have something up their corporate sleeve.
Atari's "Sun killer" is going to be just so much line noise to Sun.

Tramiel, as usual, is blowing smoke out his you know what.

Isn't Jack *Special*?

Good choice of words, Richard.  "Turkey" and "Not a contender."
Add "Mongrel" and "Freak" to that list.

I've got an Amiga and a good C compiler.  Why the hell would I want to
write programs in OCCAM???
