The world is already having their revenge on DEC. Micros and superMicros
are sweeping way past DEC. They are losing market share to Sun's and
Apollo's, which are little more than souped up PC's.
As for the Titan, (you did notice the Followup-To:, right? ;-), I had
heard the following rumors: (these are _just_ rumors, remember)
Venus - superVax - turned out to be the VaxCluster
Jupiter - new 36 bit machine - got dropped with DECSystem 20
Titan - Cray-caliber 36 bit machine - dropped same as Jupiter
Did I miss some of the rumors while I was gone???
