Ok, ok, ok, I give!

The VAXcluster consists of (or will consist of when I get a round tuit):

BILBO - VAX 6000-320
FRODO - VAXstation 4000-90
MERRY - VAXstation 3100-40
PIPPIN - VAX 4000-200
a few currently-unnamed alpha boxen that will boot into OpenVMS occasionally
SAM - '386/40 64MB(!) to watch the guts of a working LAVc

The networking equipment:
a-ko - HP hub
b-ko - Xyplex termserver
c-ko - Rylan 10bFL concentrator
hehehe! The HP and the Xyplex both hang off the Raylan, and the Xyplex gave
me fits getting it to boot-- it's pure evil. Get it?

The peaseas are mostly unnamed, but a few notable exceptions:

ai-chan - my peasea
len-chan - my wifes' peasea (she doesn't know...)

Most of the others are waiting for the right Name to occure to me, they
mostly get utilitarian names until then
