In one of my many computer publications (I think it was Byte), I saw an
article regarding a machine that was to be produced by Sun or HP or someone
that was supposed to blow the doors off any PC for essentially the same
price.  I also heard the name was to be "Sparc"intosh.  Now, I don't know if
it is me or not, but I don't think that Apple will let that name roll off of
the assembly lines.

I also read that the machine was not PC or Mac compatible(as if it could).
If so, how in the hell will it survive?  I know that Amiga's are still alive,
but can anymore like that survive?

If anyone has any info, please post what you know.

Thanx,
