At the rate I'm going it would be more like VCF 9.0 but thanks for the
encouragement.

At work I used to have an old Intel MDS 800 that I would need once in a
while for program development. The last time I used it I connected via
'cu' and did most of the work from my office and the machine was in the
lab.

I wonder whatever happened to that machine. That was a long time ago.
