To me it sparks images of nostalic meetings between old friends who might well
neither know nor care about "reality".  It sounds like we'd be plugging MPE
even if it could never hold its own against another OS.

I like e3000.org or inventedbyhp.org. In fact, I really like the last one.
And I *don't* think that time is of the essence in this case.  We have one
shot at this thing--let's take the time to make it count.

In mathematical analysis we call x the undetermined part of line a: the rest
we don't call y, as we do in common life, but a-x. Hence mathematical
language has great advantages over the common language.
