	1995 (Just after I left.)

	Oh, I _think_ Fuji was going to build a(nother)
supercomputer based upon the PA-RISC chipset at one time.. This
would have been about 1993.

	Oh, I was at CONVEX from 1989-1994, and at the former
CONVEX site of HP from 1998-2001.  I did Y2K on the SPP-1X00
test stations in 1998. :-)
