what are you talking about?
Vax existed before 1976 dude, where the hell have you been?
ever heard of the Vax 11/750 ? You know, the one with the PDP-8 FEP ?
You obviously have NO clue what you're talking about.
i was there in '76, and those had already been out for about a year.
I saw, physically handled, touched, used the "sol"
Sorry I can't remember the exact spelling, but it was like 30 years ago. sheesh.
but please, get a clue.
There are those of us who were there, we lived this. unlike some no one like yourself.
If you want to leave, go ahead. we have better things to do

There *IS* a Vax named a "Saul" or
"SOL", I've seen it.
It's a "luggable" (so to speak) like the Rainbow, but it's a Vax.
They existed, so don't insult my
intelligence.
And btw I've been doing Vaxen since 1976, so
I think
I know a thing or two about reading Ascii
it's definitely "OS/2"
I think it's time for me to unsubscribe from this list and
get back to reality. Sure, let's make up names for already
existing products instead of figuring out what they are
(VS2000? VAXmate?) and then insist that that we've
been doing the VAX a year before it left the
factory, therefore OS/2 has to exist for the PDP-11.
Why do I even try to interject myself into this crap.
