Hi Al,
I highly doubt you can get the software on floppies, but I'm usually
proved wrong, so best of luck. CD is the way to go but not all 3100's
had SCSI as standard ( at least as an external option. Apart fromthat
you're probably looking at TK tape. Versions varied, long production
run, but the most usual was a 5.5, usually rev 2 or better.
I had mine hooked up to PC serial port running ( origianlly ) winterm,
followed by a linux box too. Bonus of course being it you network it
together you can have your DECWindows too, depends on how grunty your
system is.
Best of luck with it, give me a shout if you run into any issues ( mmm,
need to dig VAXen out and play again ;-) )
Cheers
Dave
