DECstation 5000/120 & Ultrix/UWS 4.2 announcments

[archerb at kuhub.cc.ukans.edu]

  Two quick things on the new DEC RISC & Ultrix announcments.  From the
preliminary info on the DECstation 2000/120(125) platforms it appears that
some or all of the 3100 motherboard is retained.  We'd be interested in
the new models, *if* the ethernet controller used were the same as the
5000/200 (not the 2100/3100 controller).  Anyone seen anything on this?

  Also, the Ultrix 4.2 announcement mentions again OSF/Motif (as does the
DECstation 5000/120(125) announcement).  Is this still refering to the
license again, or is OSF/Motif finally being included?  If not, I wish
DEC would just drop DECwindows and include Motif - or give us the option.
Believe it or not, some of our bosses do *not* see the point in purchasing
a developer's kit for the window manager...when it is suppose to be coming
sometime anyway.  Oh, well....

         Thanks to Harold at York University (my folks are from London, Ont.)
and Al Casamento at DEC for the answers on disk partitions. :-)
