If you like Unix, you can run a plain vanilla Unix called VENIX on the 
Pro 350 and 380.  However it does not have any characteristics of a 
personal computer.  The console is just like a terminal on a mainframe.
It does have the Unix command `plot' to produce hires pictures on the 
screen.  There is also a printscreen command to print to DEC printers;
this command has to be entered on the command line and you cannot use the
key marked PRINT SCREEN on the keyboard.

Of course VENIX does multitasking and as Glenn Everhart mentioned in 
discussing P/OS, this is a very important feature.  I have found 
Venix to be much faster than P/OS; up to an order of magnitude faster 
when using some Pascal programs that use the hires screen.
I have found very little other software that I would use on the Pro.
