Is the PRO really dead. The user group is called dec.micro
but I don't see any mention of the DEC Pro Series. Have they
been forgotten? I teach in a college in Alberta. We have
several of these. All they're being used for is to run that
stupid starter kit. I've set one up to run the Toolkit and I don't
mind it. Is there anyone out there who is in the same boat?
I'd be interested in hearing from those people.

I have a DEC Professional/350 for home use.  I am running Venix on it and
am quite happy with the software.  It seems sluggish compared with the
Zenith 286 I have for MS-DOS work, but it still has its uses.  

I have used PO/S, but prefer Venix.  I have ported FORTH, and Kermit over
to it as well as a few games written in C.  If you have a spare 380 upgrade
kit laying around I would love to try it!
