Nope, sorry, Rob.

I recall Creon coming back from Chippewa Falls in 1984 saying how
beautiful a Cray-2 looked.  Then Clancy came out with The Hunt for Red
October with a Cray-2 looking nothing like a real one (since he
didn't know).  So after the announcement, George Michael (officemate)
who had a daughter at Annapolis and whom saw Clancy every now and again in
the Academy bookstore.  So he gave to her a picture of a real Cray-2 to give
to Clancy.

Intrigue is just silly.  Bring on the killer micros.
