Ok, so there basically isn't a truly legit and
ethical way to run it as a
hobbyist. I have seen the PAKs on ebay and was pondering one.
I have no plans for doing anything remotely commercial on any of the
machines I have, and I am not planning a server farm either.
Just a single machine for my own educational/fun purpose. But I totally
understand what you are saying.
If you are willing to run it using a PAK you bought on eBay you would
be better off saving the money and just finding a copy of pakgen.c
and just making your own. To be honest, I seriously doubt the current
holder of the IP cares one way or the other. And as for commercial
use, what possible commercial use would there be for running anything
on a VAX.
