The world is weird...
Until 1996, the media conversion system of one of my customers consisted of
3x 486/66, with a myriad of tapes and floppies on it.
However, the secretary had a P90 to write letters on, and the operators had
a P133 for their games, while waiting for mainframe jobs to finish.
It is just a proof of what I've been saying before: the one who shouts the
loudest (or in this case: who has an unused portion of money on his budget)
gets what he wants..
