  I would say "more than half a year OLD", rather than "out of date".  Some
  things, like wine, age well; some go away and come back.  The only statement
  on the subject that I would bet on goes something like this:  "if one of 
  your jobs is to make long-term purchasing decisions for your company and
  your job depends on making correct ones, you would be very foolish to bet
  on DEC's commitment to MIPS processors".  Isn't that obvious by now ?  So
  why bother wasting the time on it ?
