The next major release of Ultrix (3.0) is supposed to support
clusters.  (Never having used VMS clusters before, I am curious as
to why one would not want to `break up the cluster'.  What exactly
does using VMS cluster hardware buy you over using 4BSD networking,
aside from `well we already have it so we want to use it' [valid,
but to me irrelevant]?)
