The Tasmania Police Department recently changed platforms from three 'Prime' mainframes to 'Sun' boxes. The three Primes had been called 'Huey', 'Duey' and 'Luey' - the first letter of each indicating the location or use of the machines ('H'obart, 'L'aunceston and 'D'evelopment). In order to avoid confusion the new machines were given different names - but the duck theme was kept. We now have 'Darkwing', 'Launchpad' and ....... 'HOWARD'...... (see this was leading to a Dolby related topic). Hope that wasn't to long-winded or boring. Anyway, great to see you back Mary. Regards to all from down under - down under (no I wasn't stuttering - check your maps for Tasmania), John (john@police.tas.gov.au) - ----------------- End Forwarded Message ----------------- ------------------------------ End of alloy-digest V2 #61 **************************
