I am looking for some information about the Connection
Machine from MIT/Thinking Machines Inc.  Could someone
send me some pointers for some real articles?  Or an
article with a good bibliography?  I've found plenty 
of popular literature articles, but the only technical 
paper I've found is the MIT memo by Hillis.  Thanks
in advance.

The Connection Machine has now been officially announced as a commercial
product.  Requests for information relevant to AI should be directed to:

	David Waltz
	Knowledge Representation and Natural Language Group
	Thinking Machines Corporation
	245 First Street
	Cambridge, MA 02142

Please use U.S. mail.  When I get a chance, I will post some basic
specs for the machine on this list.

Also, if all you have read is the old AI memo, you should definitely
read the book, |The Connection Machine|, by Danny Hillis, published
last year by the MIT Press.
