I noticed something weird last night. My multinet Pak expired and I had to get a new PAK online. I had to get my VMS hobbyist checksum to get my new multinet oak. While getting it, I noticed that my Hobbyist pak termination date had already passed but both alphas were booting up fine and not giving me the "expired license" notice like before. Has anyone else seen this behavior ?

OS X (lack of) tape support, was Re: [HECnet] tape image manipulations...

I can probably install most of everything you want on that machine. Just give me some time... And while on this subject, I wanna buikd a RSTS/E system to, tapes of stuff, anyone?
