Doesn't the archemedian property show that R is not elementarily
equivalent to R*?  I mean the following 1st order formula true in only
one of R and R*:
for all X there is a Y such that (Y is a natural number and X<Y)

This is true in R but not in R*.  This would appear to me to be an
example of why R is not [=] to R*.
