That's why I'm building a new VAX, a real bona fide VAX product just like DEC, NOT an emulator. When the Republic of Mars declares independence and holds its first presidential election, I'll definitely run with a platform of immigration and customs laws that would require migrants from Earth to leave their pee seas behind and allow only Classic Computers to be used in the Republic of Mars. Supplying the entire Republic of Mars with enough VAX processors will be no small task, and the limited stockpiled of old DEC gear will certainly be insufficient. We need new production. We need new real Classic Computers in full production. Emulators are not the answer: what are you going to run your emulator on if non-Classic computers are banned? MS
