- Given some promises about 9.0 I'd like to update to it someday,
- but ... seems like I'll end up with our clusters running
- different versions of hpux, which means extra work. :-(
- Or maybe I'll fix the 835 with an axe ...

- OK ... but you better not announce later that HP-UX 10.0 won't support
- diskless with s700, only with s800 ... I can see it now, "only s700
- servers will be supported with odd- and only s800 servers with
- even-numbered versions of HP-UX" ...
