Which is a news.com story about how EMC (makers of storage products   mostly)
 will buy Data General for 1.1 billion in stock.
This was the last   of the
 great mini-computer companies that had been left
standing after DEC   was
 bought by Compaq.  
   I guess that makes the DG Nova down here that needs rescuing an 
 instant
 classic. Someone should grab it and put in on E-OverPay with a big 
 pitch
 about how rare it is!

This would be one of those rare instances where hype would be 
mostly true . . .
