       In the recent past there was a reference in netnews
       to a book/article about the Data General Corp making
       a big push to get a machine out the door to compete
       with the Vax.  Does anybody know the name of the
       book/article or the netnews item that referenced it ?
       Thanx.

       The book is  <<THE A OF SOUL MACHINE NEW>> by Kidder, and it's supposed
to be out on Atlantic/Little-Brown Press, although I haven't seen it out here,
yet.  This may just be lousy West Coast distribution, since Little-Brown is
in the Boston area.  It was reviewed about 4-5 weeks ago in the Sunday NY Times
(the review was quite favorable) and it was advertised there about 2 or 3
weeks ago.

       The article was in the July and August Atlantic Monthly.
