I forget what NAS was originally supposed to stand for, but it
consists of the "basic necessities" for modern operation. Workstation
NAS is a package consisting of DECWindows/Motif, DECNET, TCP/IP, some
network printing stuff, and a VMScluster license. Server NAS is a
package consisting of the above plus Pathworks, Volume Shadowing, and
a few other things. The exact "other things" depends on the exact NAS
package (there higher the number, the more extra stuff - the numbers
I'm familiar with are 150, 250, and 400.)
