Hmm, I was thinking all of the non-Domain-capable "fake Apollo" systems were 
PA-RISC, so I'd assumed this 300 was a 'real' Apollo; maybe Richard made that 
mistake, too.

Now that you mention it, I do remember an HP machine in the 3xx range (I think 
it may have been 315) passing through my hands which had he Apollo branding 
but wasn't a genuine Apollo - I never did look under the covers to see what 
CPU it was, though.

Yeah, I'd always thought that was true of the earlier ones, too - I didn't 
realise that was just the 4xx line (those machines are *wonderful*; they purr 
along nicely with Domain and the build quality's just fantastic. I'd love to 
find one again...)

cheers
