I have a pair of QBus FDDI cards. I suppose I would have to make the Octane a router between FDDI and ethernet. :) Are any of those 4000/500s mine? ;) Nope. I picked these up from Villanova University several years ago. I was interviewing at a place recently and the subject of VAXen came up. Interviewer: "I remember have an account on a pair of 4000/500s in a cluster when I was at Villanova years ago." Me: "Those machines are at my house now!" Interviewer: "NO WAY!" I had quite a few machines up here in your old place at one point. Don't worry, I'd only be after one of them, and even that is low-priority at this point. Going and rescuing all that stuff is something I really want to do one day. Not anytime soon though. :( -brian
