Which version of 11M+ are you using? DSC became "unsupported" in recent.
versions, the "supported" way of doing what you want is BRU. DSC isn't
even included in the last few binary releases.

Hi
It seems that Compaq does not carry much info on older DEC products. Is there some site where I could enter an identifying number and will be able to get info on that particular products?

I'm looking for a small number (two or three) of these drives;
they're 5 1/4 inch full-height differential SCSI drives; they
tend to be found in Sun boxen.
Anybody have any they'd be willing to part with via sale/trade?

I have two MicroVax II's in the deskside cabinets each with 3 drives. I'll
check them out at home and report what's in them exactly. I know I have
memory and the disks. I haven't opened them recently. If somebody wants
them for shipping plus packing I'd gladly transfer them to you. I've got a
Microvax 2000 to work with.

Do you need these exact HP drives? If it's a capacity issue, there's
a very valuable technique called "mode page editing" that will let
you adjust drive capacities downward so that you can use large-capacity
recent-manufacture SCSI drives in place of older low-capacity SCSI
drives. It's a very valuable technique when the hardware or OS don't
support large-capacity drives, a very common situation with older hardware.
Tim.

You have a manual set for a CDC-based Plato application? Or for one
of the later incarnations of Plato (such as on the TI/99a)?

Here is my take on excessive work expectations.
If that is the example you want to set for your children and expresses your
values, i.e. your work is the most important thing in life and all else
including family is peripheral, then you should work 80+ hours. However
don't be surprised when your children have the same values and don't have
time for you. If your company sees you as a resource to be consumed and
then discarded for the newer/cheaper model then you may be in the right
field.
If you are single and want the challenge then work is like a drug,
intoxicating for the knowledge and accomplishment. When you are married
then perhaps life has other meanings, watching your children grow is
exciting.
I have been on both sides of this spectrum, when I was single the most
excitement, all of my friends, my world revolved around work. When I got
married and had children I realized that there was more to life and my
values have changed.
I'm not saying either lifestyle is the best, just works best for me.
The hard part is the interaction between the hardcode work people and the
hardcore humans, conflicting values.
