As this illustrates, the current release of HPUX differs noticeably
between the 2 machines, more than can be justified by their different cpu
types.  This means that a site with a mix of HP-800, HP-300 and Suns needs
to concider about 2.25 operating systems ;-)

Makes one appreciate the work that went into making SunOs 4 support 4 cpus.
