Subject: RE: Dear Santa, I would like a VAX....
That's one nice VAX, I'm glad it's on the other side of the pond :^)
It's definitely a TZ30 as that was the only DLT tape option for uVAXen. The
thing that's puzzling me is the fact they've shoehorned an RX33 in there - I
thought the 3100-10 was the only machine to have floppy capability......
I certainly never sold any and I don't remember it being an option for the
bigger machines. Pity it's front cover is missing too, but for 20-odd quid I
wouldn't complain :)

The DLT looks more like a TZ30 to me (still nice
to have) and
A good indication that it's a TZ30 is that it's a half-height drive. The
TZ30 is the only half-height drive that uses Compact-Tapes.
