[Then on about being in the Xerox domain...]

Um, I wouldn't be so bigotted if I were you - a 386 running V.3 isn't
exactly a "PC" in the normal sense - in horsepower it's pretty close
to a Sun and it could easily have 16 or more users.  It doesn't appear to
be a "personal computer" either - the "Entire Inc." seems to imply that
it's not his personal machine.  It is a little confusing tho - his
map entry seems to imply he's separate from Xerox, but is trying
to get the Xerox domain to know him.  Maybe his .xerox.com is a little
premature?
