Actually, I run RSTS on the simh pdp11 simulator. If I can run
VMS on a simh VAX simulator, that would be OK. and my
laptop dual boots Win98 / Linux Redhat 7. Being able to
telnet in would become a "It would be nice" if the VAX is
simulated on my "main workstation"

I think the version of VMS I was exposed to is 3.xx, no command line
history (cuz I had to do that myself in DCL)

How do I get started?
