This will probably result in a faster migration of CISC-VAXen into
people's homes, just as you see folks buying S*n 3/xxx and setting them up as
X-terms and personal Un*X networkds.
... Hmm ... I wonder how cheaply you could produce a 4000/90 if you farmed out
the chips and such...
Somehow I doubt they'll be selling the VAX/CISC chips to Commodore or Atari,
but it's always nice to wonder... :)
