If this is true (the "appears" alleviates the scare somewhat), then I think DEC is making a Big Mistake. I like DEC equipment partly because I have these little manuals I can flip through. It's hard to have too much documentation [though VMS perhaps succeeds here :-)]. The best argument I can give for my opinion is "if we don't know enough about it, we aren't going to buy it".
