VAXectomy
     
         /vak-sek't*-mee/ (By analogy with "vasectomy")
        Removal of a {VAX}.  {DEC}'s {Microvax}en, especially, are
        much slower than newer {RISC}-based {workstations} such as the
        {SPARC}.  Thus, if one knows one has a replacement coming, VAX
        removal can be cause for celebration.
