SIMH for VMS on VAX

Yes, that's SIMH running *on* VMS. Binaries are here, currently only for VAX, still working on alpha, feel free to download: ebola::disk$user:[decnet.simh.vax] Note that there's no network support.

I apologize for it I was thinking of doing this as a retrochallenge project - it's really cool and stops me from thinking about purchasing a real PDP! which is good - no space *or* money at the moment! I dunno man, doesn't sound too good to me! ;) -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
