A couple of weeks ago, I was told that a vax was to be thrown out at work.
I assumed it was the rather nice pair of Vax 9000 machines that was our main
server for many years, but alas no. It is a Vax 4000-305A (with some well cool
disk and tape accessories) It is a desktop box but lives in a DEC 3/4-height
19-inch rack that used to house a machine called SF200. Another shelf in the
rack houses a fun-looking tape drive of which I can't remember the number, and
two SCSI boxes (the sort that take about 8 drives in one box) are standing on
the floor of the rack.
Anyway, what sort of machine is the 4000-305A? AFAIK it was running VMS when
last it was running...
(The other question is... Where do I put it??? With luck, I may have rented
somewhere suitable within the next couple of weeks, but I don't know. And then
there's the SGI monitor I got given today. Aargh!)
Philip.
