I've been a big Linux fan since January '92, but I fail to understand why
anyone would want to run Linux on a system that will run OpenVMS. Besides,
I found OpenBSD to work better with the AlphaStation 200 I've got acting as
a firewall than Linux. On the otherhand I might consider a dual boot
setup, but I doubt it, I prefer to run Linux on Intel.

>we'll see manuals labeled "Compaq RT-11" or Compaq VMS").

I doubt the RT-11 also, but what is the difference between "Compaq VMS" and
"Compaq OpenVMS"? Wierder is the fact that the red Compaq where the
digital used to be is the same font as the OpenVMS, but the Compaq in the
"Compaq OpenVMS" are two different fonts. What can I say, it offends my
sensibilities :^)

Seriously, what I don't like is the lack of colour coding that the 6.2
manuals I've got have on thier spines.
