True. The 8650 wins both the air moving competition and the power 
consumption competition. a -2060 would probably beat it on power, 
though. But we don't have space for the -2060 in the computer room...
But the fans in the 8650... Hurricane class.

It is. And it would be cool to actually cluster it with the VAXen...
