  Ack...I'm a bit jaded I guess; the whole technical staff of my company (about
18 people) *all* use Tadpole 3GX or 3XP systems. I see & use them every day,
so I had forgotten all about the very existence of their older systems. I have
a Sparc2-alike Tadpole here that's very weird...the boot monitor isn't very
sun-like as I recall. A very strange machine.

  Keep your eyes open for a Sparcbook3 system...you'll *love* it!
