- The current board is called the DELQA. There are a couple of versions, I think
- one is faster than the other. Once upon a time DEC had a special trade in deal
- where for $600 (approx.) you could trade up to a DELQA. You might talk to a DEC
- salesthingy and see if you can get that deal. They extended it several times, so
- who knows, it might still be available.

- I dunno. I think the DEQNA is still supported on PDP's so it might still be
- supported on Ultrix. I'd find out before spending any money.
