      I don't know of anybody buying Symbolics boxes in quantity around
here.  Everybody seems to have a few, but no new ones are being acquired.
Besides, they're no longer a status symbol; nowadays you have to have a
Connection Machine to impress anybody.  But the general machine for getting
work done seems to be a Sun III.
