	What we would really like to see on the MicroVAX is FLOATING POINT!

Okay Ron, you've got it!  MicroVAX I has F-floating plus either D- or G-floating
in hardware; MicroVAX II with the floating point chip has all three.

There.  Who says Digital isn't responsive to its customers?  (Actually I don't
know whether Ron is a customer.)

I hope it won't be taken as advertising for me to suggest that anyone who has
questions about VAXes, micro or macro, first get the relevant literature, which
should be available through a sales office.  This should apply particularly to
anyone who plans to comment.
