Jim Morris left PARC and went off to CMU and began talking up the idea of the "3M" workstation.  One MIPs, One Megabyte of RAM, and One Million Pixels.

The way I heard it, a workstation needed to have Menus, a Mouse, and a 1 MIPS processor. It also had a megabyte of RAM, at least a megabit LAN, a megapixel of display, and cost about a megapenny.
