  Yes. There is a lot of confusion because the VAXstation 3100 is a
microVAX and the DECstation 3100 is the MIPS machine. I would think that
they would have enough number to go 'round to use another for the RISC
archetecture. The RISC machine is "real fast" by any standard, but I
want to see what Sun releases at their press conference in March.
