Amazing to think that Kent is busy dealing quite matter of factly(?) with a
database containing 100's of millions of records (199) on a processor that
runs @ 30 mhz, and he probably exposes this data to 50 or more users
simultaneously, each with a nice secure logon, and reasonable access speeds.

And many of these users no doubt will be accessing the data from a desktop
with at least 10 times the raw CPU cycles, and in some cases, as much, or
more disk space.

Kent's upgrade path (cpu only) is a remarkable 55 times.

The HPe3000 (or in his case, the HP3000) and MPE/iX truly is a machine built
for the real world of industrial strength computing.
