Of course you have to realize that this is an NC (in the modern sense). A
VAXmate worked really well in a network environment with a VAX at the far
end running Pathworks. I remember setting one up in 1987 and being
impressed with what you could achieve. It was really nice being able to
store PC data on our VAX which we backed up properly!

Of course, like DECs other NC (the Multia) they were ahead of the market
and couldn't sell them to save themselves :-(
