Now let's not get too excited with our visions of the New Raq.  I know that
85% of the readers here would "wet ourself" over a Raq5 with Dual P4 with a
Gig or two of RAM in addition to Hardware Raid 5. BUT, if SUN wants $4995 -
$6995 for the dang thing... most of us will just "continue to dream".  I've
seen it called the Raq550, What's that 550 mean??  Hopefully it's not the
CPU speed!

What's one of the first things SUN did when they bought Cobalt?  They gave
us the faulty Raq Xtr (updated the machine, tripled the price).  How many of
these do YOU own?  WHY?  COST Right?

With the Cobalt Executive leaving SUN, I'd wanta know what he's gonna do
next??  Maybe he's leaving because he's watched SUN vitually destroy his
"baby" the RAQ.  Maybe he's gonna start another COBALT like company?  What
if?

Just Food for thought!
