What I meant to say was that it is my charter to have all of our
machines on the HCL by OS release dates, anyway.  All of our machines
to date have been and we intend to make sure that's true in the
future as well.

Our Raptor 3 line wasn't shipping by the time NT 3.51 came out, so
there was no way to have made that HCL.  The interim HCL's are of
use only to Microsoft (and I suppose people that don't trust us
:-)).

Also, I verified last night that Aspen, Digital and Polywell have
their 21064A machines on the list, but no one else does, at least as
of the September version of the HCL.
