Well, they did it.  They once again did something about as dumb as
changing the name of MPE/XL to MPE/iX.

The HP 3000 900 Series is now the HP e3000 900 Series.

I like the changes they made, except for the name!  I suspect in a year,
it will look even more stupid.  Just my opinion.

It appears the 918LX and 928LX are gone, now just the 918RX and 928RX
remain.

The 988RX is back (ordered as a 928RX plus a field upgrade kit).

The 929KS/020 is now the faster 929KS/030 (60MHz to 81MHz).

The 929KS/020 is now the faster 939KS/030 (78MHz to 117MHz).

The 969KS is gone (it may have gone months ago).

That's all I have determined from a quick read of the new HP e3000 900
Series Computer Systems Configuration Guide - Effective 2/00".
