Sounds to me like you have made the classical mistake of buying a computer 
with no clear idea of what you want to use it for, rather than having 
a definite need and selecting a system (hardware and software) that 
will best fill that need.
 
I suggest you contact your local DEC marketing office and see if they 
can supply a copy of the Rainbow Handbook and any other Rainbow material 
they might still have on hand; if not, maybe they can tell you where 
to get it.   Also, you should ask for a referral to your local DECUS 
rep and attend a meeting of the Rainbow or VAX LUG in your area.
 
This BBS and others have numerous public domain and shareware programs 
that will work on the Rainbow.
