   These groups may be the wrong place for this request, but I couldn't think
of anyplace else: we're putting a new VAX online soon, and trying to come up
with two names, one for it and one for a microVAX that needs a new name.
The name ShadowVAX has been suggested for one or the other, but it seemed
likely that there's some machine out there with that name already, given
the propensity of some CS folk for Tolkien.  So, two questions: does anyone
know of a machine with that name?  and does it matter?
Thanks,
