"Dilbert"s nerdiness appeals to me; there, I've said it.  But I don't
alwsys catch his references.

In a recent strip, the humour lies in recognizing the acronyms buried
in a sentence reading, in part,
	"...SO, EITHER AN IBM 586 WITH 10 MEG RAM OR MAYBE A SPARC CPU
	ON A LAN...BUT WITH AI AND AVR COMBINED WITH BISON..."
But what do "AVR" and "BISON" refer to?
