Ok, so I once wrote:

and lots of people told me I was wrong concerning ITT XTRA XP.  I
consider myself flamed, and I probably deserve it, you see my company
(Bunker Ramo) was just bought by Olivetti, and they gave us alot of
hype about how they are the #2 manufacturer of PC's volume-wise in the
world, right behind IBM, and manufacture ATT's 6300, ITT's
somethingorother, and one other major company's offering, I forget who.

Either it wasn't true or it is some other ITT PC, not the XTRA XP.  I
dont know and I shouldn't have guessed.  I do know that the 6300 is the
same as the Olivetti M24, though.

Sorry.
