	Data General AViiON (m88k) Information
		For several years, Data General produced AViiON systems based around the Motorola 88k processor family (88100/88200 and the 88110).
		Well, they were kind of desperate when naming the AViiON systems and spelled NOVA backwards with the "ii" in the middle--if I remember right, that was supposed to represent a newer generation or something like that.
		Since I've been out of touch with Data General for years and they don't have any good historical information available on their web site, my information is very sketchy.

		AViiON was a series of computers from Data General that were the company's main product from the late 1980s until the company's server products were discontinued in 2001.
		Data General had, for most of its history, essentially mirrored the strategy of DEC with a competitive (but, in the spirit of the time, incompatible) minicomputer with a better price/performance ratio.
		However by the 1980s, Data General was clearly in a downward spiral relative to DEC. With the performance of custom-designed minicomputer CPU's dropping relative to commodity processors, the cost of developing a custom solution no longer paid for itself.
