I HAVE a VAX as it happens, unfortunately, it doesn't have Ultrix, which
is the only U*ix that will run on it. (Mod 6000-310 64mb XMI Bus) It has 
VMS instead. Seems to be an OK operating system, unfortunately it has no 
native TCPIP (Decnet :^( ) and it's S-L-O-W. Unless you know of a 
U*ix compile that will run on an XMI bus machine? I hope? (Ultrix is DEC
proprietary and $ x lots)

Cheers
Geoff
