Gee, Al, you write the same silly marketing nonsense working for Sequent as
you did working for Pyramid.

(Open Mainframe? Out of i486 chips? OK, I suppose that's not any sillier than
Pyramid calling its 9000 systems a "mini mainframe." So what do you call an
Amdahl running UTS? Chopped germanium?)
