I read an
essay once where the author named the official colors of
Digital's PDP computers / front panels. Now I can't find it, and I
would really like to know what the colors were called. One
was "China
Red," I believe. There is a blue color and a
kind of pumpkin color
too. Does anyone remember those color names? Or know of a document
that discusses the colors?
Hey, that's cool. I'd like to know also.
This cropped up recently in either comp.os.vms or comp.sys.dec
so a deja search should find it.
The orange colour of the OpenVMS V4 doc set was officially
called Chinese Red.
The grey colour of the OpenVMS V5 doc set was officially
called Champagne Beige.
I don't recall ever seeing names for the preceding dark
blue or light blue colours.
