Our division is thinking about buying a mini-super computer with our allotment
of capital improvement funds.  I vaguely remember hearing a lot of critism 
regarding mini-super computers; words to the effect that as a type, these
computers were overated.  Does anyone have any comments, experience, etc.
that would shed light on this subject and that they would be willing to 
share with the net or send to me via E-mail?  Thank you.
