    Brief Description of Problem:
    -----------------------------
ASAP business manager Allan Groves passed the call up to the war room.

Customer wanted to know if a specific workstation model number supported
OpenVMS as an operating system.  Model number was SN-B3AAP-FW.  This was the
only model Vernon Computer could rent to them.  They need a 64 MB, 2 GB,
CD-ROM, 2D graphics, 19" monitor, and ethernet for 3 days to demo to Shell Oil
with OpenVMS on 5/12.

	Called customer back and verified that the model doesn't support OpenVMS. Asked the Business Manager to see if there was another source from which this customer could rent VMS systems. Business Manager (Allen Groves) called her back and gave her a name to call.
