	And Masscomp is currently working on a VMEbus machine...all their newer
machines will be VMEbus...that is when they get it all working, including
a VME to Multibus card.

	In fact there are several 68000 machines on the Multibus because it
was out there and controlers were available before the VMEbus was accepted
here (it was originally called the Eurobus with some differences).
