Well a reseller would probably want ?1K or so,
maybe more. You'd probably get it for ?50-?100
at an auction, and probably for a song at a
scrapyard. But you'd have to wait for one to
turn up.
It's about the fastest VAX you can reasonably
run at home (OK - the -96/98,-106/-108 and the
VS4000-9x machines'd give it a run for its money,
but not so's you'd notice).
Noone's going to notice one extra piddly little
VAX sitting there are they :-)
