I'm thinking of buying a used VAX -11/780 but I have a couple of
questions....

Can it run UNIX and a reasonable new version of UNIX?
How much physical memory can it have and how much do upgrades cost?
CAn you buy serial port boards and how much do they cost?
Can you buy a tape backup and how much does it cost?

Please email replies I really appreciate any help!
