  The quoted price for the VAX 9000 is apx. $23,000 U.S.   Don't know anything
  about availability (on machines other than the VAX 9000); I've gotten two
  types of answers from DEC:  1) "will be available on VAX 9000 only for the 
  time being" - tho the VAX 9000 isn't exactly ready yet, either;  2) "I don't
  know and no one else seems to either"
