Don't forget that the MicroVAX 3100 console
also assumes that it is the only master on
the bus. I don't think anyone envisaged doing
this sort of thing at the time that was written.
Later on (sometime during Alpha development)
consoles became a little brighter and a shared
SCSI bus (mainly for OpenVMS clustering) became
possible.
