Mmm, I think i'd do better here than finding a VAX on ebay, There are more VAXen here than on eBay. ;) which 4000-series model in particular? I have...many. I'll have to check to be more specific. I also have several desktop VAXen, like 3100 series machines. I have some 4000/60s and 4000/90s, but I'll be hanging onto those. Also do you happen to have drives for one? All I have spare are some 16G 5.25" SCA SCSI drives + adapters for fast SCSI. Also, if you happen to have any adapters for MMJ as I don't have any real terminals, that'd be nice, too. Well these would generally use DSSI drives, unless you can score a Qbus SCSI host adapter. I might be able to free up one DSSI drive, but that'd cost you...they're drying up fast, and I've got machines to keep running. I can spare you an MMJ adapter or two. Off toppic, and off the top of my head, probably a dozen racks' worth of comparatively recent Sun hardware. And Crays. These would involve some serious swappage, though. Have any pentium-era systems? I need something to run Slackware 4.0 on for openlook. Maybe, but I've never been much into PC hardware...200+ machines here and maybe six of them are PCs. We'll see what we can dig up, though. Clean out your car and pick a weekend, man! (or a weekday..) My lady's a chef; I'll sweet-talk her into whipping us up something tasty. (You have no idea how hard it is to get this working in a VM ). Oh yes I do. ;) I virtualized a gaggle of SCO OpenServer machines for a customer about two years ago, using VMware. Oh man that was a mess...VMware was the only virtualization platform that would work, and even that took some doing. They're all still running, though, but now on VERY different hardware. :-) -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
