Here's some deals *I've* made: DEC LSI 11/23 (1980), $18,000; today ~$500 Atari 400 (1982), $350; today $29.95 DEC Rainbow 100 (1983), $3000; today - what's scrap iron go for? Chevrolet Cavalier (1982), $9000; today $1100. Such is life. "my previous favorite of UCI-LISP on a DEC-10, this is a more productive setup because it is easier to get work done" Well I personally find that a bit hard to believe, but you're certainly entitled to your opinion . - Michel Disclaimer: I don't normally go in for disclaimers, but I should point out that although I work for Xerox, I have no connection whatever with the group responsible for Interlisp-D (aka Xerox Lisp) other than as a very satisfied customer.
