It is probably
a bad idea to spam (even if it is ~on-topic)
your fans,
It's no more on-topic than it would be if HP were spamming
about the new ES47 (unless dnpg are still selling* the
HUB90 stuff and friends).
I hate to sound "clintonian" but it may depend on how one looks at it. From
the labels on the boxes of DECserver 90s I've been replacing lately, it appears that
DNPG is supplying the rebuilt spares and, from the serial numbers, some replacement spares
are from current production where the old units were not repairable.
