I think that's true. The 11/750 didn't come out for a couple of years,
and that's the only other model that I would expect could do it (since
its microcode is in ROM). Dunno what devices are supported by V1.0.

We got a MicroVAX-I when they were new ($10K!). It came with MicroVMS on
an RD-52 (10Mb disk). AFAIK, that was the first VAX not in the 11/7xx line.

I don't recall the question, but I have the VMS 1.0 docs in a storage locker.
There is a possibility that I know someone with the media kit, but it's been
years since I talked to them.
OTOH, I have no docs for any v2 or v3 versions of VMS, but I do have some
distribution TU-58s for stuff in the range of 3.4 to 3.6.
