I'm not too fond of windows past NT 4 for anything other than an

I didn't. And from what they tell me, that knowledge is now IN my
brain, and I cannot get those neurons back.
I think Dave has a few extra neurons to spare. And if he can't get
these back they must be core instead of dynamic. I think I'll see if we
can get him to exhibit a RSTS "?Program lost, sorry" message.
If anyone can, YOU can...heck, you were the guy who introduced me to
RSTS, what, 27 or 28 years ago?
I still have 2 DECServer 3300's (Alpha's) that I installed NT4 TSE on
some time back before the turn of the century. Dastardly slow, but the
only platform I had at the time at home to practice on to get Citrix
certified.
They really ran FreeBSD nice though, and since I had loaded 4 drives in
each one, I think I also had copies of NetBSD and Linux (loaded via Milo).
I wish they had been able to run VMS, alas they were the white elephants.
They wouldn't run FreeBSD V4, until we stole a patch from the NetBSD boys.
Well it seems VMS can indeed run on those. You wanna take the plunge?
