I'm fairly certain that nearly all of the publicly accessible OpenVMS
clusters are being run on hobbyist licenses. The one covered on
Slashdot was the Death Row cluster:

There's also a cluster of VAX 6000 systems available in Germany. I'm
not sure if their systems will permanent, given the cost of running
power hungry VAX 6000s, but I donated to their cause.

By all means, I think it'd be interesting to have more classic systems
available on the internet.
