c|net's NEWS.COM has more on SuperDome, at

   http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1003-200-2757613.html

One interesting item:

   HP is changing payment plans so that customers' payments go up or down
   depending on how much of the machine's computing capacity is being used.
   Previously, HP only offered the option to buy a server with unused
   processors, paying only when a customer needed to fire them up.

Still, the machine sounds too darned complex.  As if sysadmin of HP-UX
was not complex enough already.  (Jeff?  Richard?)
