Regarding those postings from RAID "advisory" board marketing, their 
scheduled RAID 3/4/5 marketing seminars in Newton, MA (Route 128) were 
just cancelled due to lack of any Route 128 interest in their older and 
much slower RAIDs.  That's what happens to any computer industry vendor 
who doesn't stay on top of the latest industry developments.  In general, 
UNIX (and VAX) systems administrators are now upgrading their installed 
configurations with the new RAID accelerator platforms that speed up I/O 
by many multiples, rather than putting in CPU upgrades that usually are 
not needed.  Is that finally it for the rab, their "advisory" seminars, 
and their slower(!)-than-single-spindle architectures?
