Hi Michael,

 Just missed you then, I started in '83 on the Omega
project (they must have just been starting the B4900
design about when you left).

Check out .

Now Goleta, that would have been nicer than Pasadena.   Bud Keeley
always said the Santa Barbara area was nice...

Shoot, and I knew that (although I only used the B7900 a
couple of times).  Been looking at the CHERI project
(capabilities are coming back!), and have spent too much
time on afc talking about the PDP-10 (36-bit).
