Since Compaq bought DEC, and then HP bought/merged with Compaq, yes, HP
owns DEC's IP. For info on the OpenVMS hobbyist program, see:
http://www.montagar.com/hobbyist/index.html or
http://www.encompassus.com to become a member of Encompass (what was
DECUS) so you can participate in the OpenVMS hobbyist program.
