If the 7300 was the 3B1, M68K, I had one of those and a good friend also
had one.  It was a huge step up from a CP/M machine which was my 
previous machine.  I liked it a lot.

But I wasn't at Bell Labs so perhaps this isn't the info you want.  I got
the sense that the 3B2 was not very popular anywhere.
