While at the interop conference about 6 months ago, I noticed a demo SUN
had going at their booth.  It was called rpc-tool and could generate
ray-tracing, and mandelbrot pictures using all available machines on the
local network.  I asked the Sun person standing by the demo where this
software came from and he said that it is available on the "Sun Corporate
Demo tape version 3".  He said there is a demo-tape group that wrote the
software.  I called my Sun sales rep, but he had not heard of the tape and
did not know how to get it.  Does anyone have a copy of this tape?  Can
you tell me where to get it?  If there were any way to get the source code
(The man at the Sun booth said he though it would be public domain) I
would be eager to get at it (so that it could be brought up on our
386i's).
