    * DIGITAL EQPMT. CORP increased the performance advantage of its
      Alpha micro- processor family by announcing a faster, 600MHz
      version of its Alpha 21164 microprocessor for workstations and
      servers. The new Alpha 21164-600MHz chip, with a peak execution
     rate of 2.4 billion instructions per second (BIPS), delivers an
      estimated 18.0 SPECint95 and 27.0 SPECfp95, the industry's top
      figures for both RISC and CISC processors. Samples are
      available now from Digital Semiconductor, a Digital Equipment
      Corporation business. (PR Newswire 08:02 AM ET 03/31/97) For

   Just for info, our current 21164 design is limited to 500MHz by the
   support chipset.
