    ....
    the SUN (say a 4/330, but anything with a VMEbus should work) ....

Yes, that's what you'd think if you weren't an expert on the VMEbus and
SUN's many VMEbus implementations.  The reality is different.  It's
really quite appalling.

I say this not to criticize SUN, but just as a warning not to count on any
configuration working that Symbolics does not say is a supported configuration.

Re the subject line of this message: I don't know if people still use
Explorers, but it certainly appears that they don't still talk about them!
