There definitely _was_ an RA80, and at least one still _is_: it is the
next device I'll try to bring up with my 11/34A. Not quite the same aera
perhaps, but it saves space compared to the RM80 that did the job
before: while the RM80 has the Massbus adapter in about 2/3 of the rack,
the RA80 leaves about the same amount of space free for two RA82s. These
will be for the MicroVAX, but having 120MB of space for an RSX system is
more than plenty.
