I remember the day when the microvax II and all the other vaxes on 
campus were upgraded from CMU-TEK to the Multinet TCP/IP stack.  Gone 
were the days of maxing out at 14kbit/s on the high speed 10 megabit 
co-ax campus backbone - we could now get hundreds of kilobits per 
second.  The joy of it.

That decision to upgrade happened the day that all CMU-TEK installations 
in the world went offline due to some bug or other.
