To all those PRO 350/380 owners:

We have about 17 or so PROs and they are connected to a VAX running VMS.  About
a week ago a post-doc said he was having problems with the PRO-HOST TOOL-KIT
linker (I do not know if it is different than the RSX linker we have on our
VAX.)  So I thought I would call up DEC and ask them to send us a new version
of the PRO-HOST TOOL-KIT for our VAX (we upgraded to VMS 5.0, or so).  The DEC
salesman said that that product was discontinued about a year ago and as of
January 1, 1989, DEC will no longer support hardware nor software items related
to PROS (or something like that.)  Has anyone else heard anything about this?

Confused and left with a bunch of PRO's:
