Stop skiting, mate :)

Seriously, no wonder you declined to send me one.  The 5000/150 takes
about 40 minutes, still faster than the 5000/240.

I wonder if the r4000 daughterboard really works in the 3MAXPLUS
motherboard; the memory system should be faster than the 3100-style SIMMs.

Heh. Faster than a vax, that's for sure.
