Subject: DEC's Alphas Are Floundering In EDA Due To No Verilog Port

It is too sad that DEC will not port Cadence Verilog XL over to their Alpha.
I keep hoping that DEC will turn the corner as Bob Palmer is predicting and
has been predicting now for several years.  Then I can go back and contract
for them.  About a year ago they eliminated their requirements that if one
left the company they could not go back.  (The reason is that DEC couldn't
find enough engineers to hire...)
