	Dear Netlanders

    Being a software engineer (even though my degree reads BSEE) I would
    like to know what the VME in VME bus stands for. I say it stands for
    Virtual Memory Extended, one of my co workers says it stands for something
    else the E being for Europe. Please no flames.

							Much Obliged,
