Is there a future beyond the PA-8000 for RISC? Do we have to regard the
HP/INtel chip as the only chip in HP's future? IF the HP/Intel chip
provides for tightly integrated emulation, why wouldn't the PA-8000
be emulated? Surely HPUX will also be carrying a large quantity of
emulated code for a good while. If MPE makes it this far, isn't there
room of evaluation of the future of MPE, then?
