A few years later it would have been a real success.

    Well...a few years later, with better cooling, and with something
other than the 21066 as its CPU.   That chip had a memory controller
designed by the "NEW GUY!" and it was slower than pissing tar.   The
21064's memory bandiwdth is far superior.
