	There are rumors/rumblings afoot that we have a operational
	600M/b thingie which now has PCI interfaces in addition
	to the existing sbus, nubus and EISA bus cards.  Now if we 
	can just get infrastructure vendors to provide something 
	that we can plug into,  this would potentially make a 
	reasonable ExchangeNG (tm).  Imagine a lan technology that
	would keep up with multiple incoming OC3s!  (where is that
	gigabit lan technology when you need it... :)
