  HP/Convex (more specifically, the Exemplar line) are doing pretty
well nowadays, from what I've read.  Those are some ALL-BALLS-POWERFUL
systems.

  TMC is flat-out gone, as far as I know..

  But Cray...did Cray go out of business when I wasn't looking?  Last I
heard (yesterday) they were doing pretty well.

  Or was that not what you were suggesting...?
