Yes, such a project exists. It is at the point where we are searching for
additional people to join the project.  The project is quite serious.

This new project does NOT signal a dropping of the 32000 line.  The 32000 line
is going well.  In fact work towards the the next generation cpu is going
strong.  Yeilds are up, and the `3*3**' runs a solid Unix.  New yummo 32xxx
chips are in the pipes.

National just happens to be a multi-nation company that is big enough to do
more than one thing and chew bubble gum at the same time!  :-}
