As for
mainframes, well, since you can buy a more powerful computer for what
it would cost to operate a mainframe of yesteryear for just one day, I guess
nobody will miss 'em.
For instance, I purchased a MicroVax 3400 which I'm going to put in
working order. I also have a VS3100, I purchased that because it was
inexpensive and I could experiment on it first. I just want to be more
knowledgable with the MV3400 before I start really playing with it.
Am I the only one that considers MicroVaxen and Micro-11s to be microcomputers?
Lets get our distinctions straight. If it's smaller than a desk, or doesn't
take at least 15 vertical inches in an 19" rack it's a micro, right?
