  Hmm...I'll have to keep my eyes open for that stuff.

  Not yet. I was a VMS sysadmin several years ago (5.4 was current) but I
never played with clustering. I'd like to cluster the two 4000-400s at the
very least; maybe all of them. Since you mention that yours are clustered,
could you recommend a good place to start?

  Nah, *all* VAXen are cool!

  Great hardware, great software! Since I've got decent connectivity here, I'm
hoping to set up some sort of archive server, and I've also got a hankerin' to
run a net-accessible BBS on a VMS system.
