I spoke to Ed Steinfeld of VenturCom, and he was most helpful.
(That may be because I explained that I was donating my time
to resurrect some PRO 350/380 machines that DEC had just donated
to a local school.)

Anyway, I gave Ed the list of ID numbers from the Venix 1.0 
installation procedure, which he then ran through their
authorization-number generating algorithm.  I got the authorization
codes back from him the same day, and proceded to install Venix
on several of our 350s.  (Venix 1.0 installs on the 380 and runs
OK if I log in from the COM Port, but it doesn't work properly on
the Console, due to a problem managing the Console screen buffer.)
