The point is, we want more than just another unix, and preferably we also would
like to chuck intel while we are at it.  I want a scheme based machine with
Common Lisp, Python, and smalltalk support on top, a lisp optimized CPU, and
killer graphics support, preferably more flexible than GL.  In loo of that, I
want a really great file system that is standardized for the platform so that 
most apps take advantage of it.
