<Don't forget to do the same thing for VMS source (alpha and vax):

<These went for $265.00 and $232.50, respectively.

<Having VMS source would be cool. But were these disks readable? Did they
<even have anything on them? Who knows. All the seller knew (said) was:
<
< Don't know much about this one ... its a four disk set ..
< I dont have the books or the box it came in. It says on
< each disk "OpenVMS Alpha V7.2 Operating System" then "Source Listings"
<
<Think of the possibilities. NT Source on CDs... Windows 98 source... use
<your imagination.


Not on a bet. VMS source would be HUGE, if it were a four disk set it
would have to be LS120 or ZIP disks to hold it. Likely same for NT.
