Was there an Intel based DECstation? 
The only ones I ever saw were MIPS based.

Ahh! Wikipedia says there were 3 different DECstation lines: one based
on PDP-8, annother based on MIPS, and yet another based on Intel.
Naturally one has to scan/read the entire article to find the Intel
references.

The name I dug out of 1994 Byte issue are DEC Celebris desktop and
HiNote laptop. But that's not the names I had in mind.
