A recent in Dr. Dobbs Journal (April, 95) listed the NT op sys as available
on HP-PA *with* Little-endian architecture!  The article was "Serialization
and MFC" by Chane Cullens in the April 1995 issue.  Well, we know the new
7100 stuff is bi-endian, but I'd not actually seen an implementation or even
an acknowledgement that NT was coming.  The reference was so light though,
(only in one Table), that I can't be sure if its fact or speculation.
