Code-named "Mothra", I believe (to relate back to the Gozilla and
Bambi names). :)
Okay, real trivia.
A *long* time ago, when it became obvious that the EISA bus was a big lose, we decided to move to PCI. At that time we already had a port of our software to run on an Alpha platform (in our simulator), and were faced with exploring fast off-the-shelf PCI solutions.
We obviously were going to look at Pentium, which had a PCI support chip set available, and Alpha was our next shot as it was due out the door and we had the port almost done.
Most of engineering was invited over my house on a Wednesday nite I believe for a video night of the two most violent films I'd ever seen -- "Robocop" and "Bambi". (I have a small place -- this was a long time ago -- engineering mostly fit in my living room).
Between the two films to bridge was an unannounced short.
The short was the cult classic cartoon "Bambi Meets Godzilla".
Later that week we named the two projects that ran in parallel "Bambi" (later the F330) and "Godzilla" (the F540). We had both going internally full steam up until the decision to ship the F330 first (parts availability issues mostly).
