Are you actually needing the VAX console software? From what I've
seen it's not good for anything other than being a VAX Console. A
Pro380 would be much more interesting with P/OS, RT-11, or even Unix.
No, but I'm willing to bet someone's VAX 8800 is! P/OS is kinda
interesting, but not horribly interesting. RT-11 or Venix/2.11BSD
would be more interesting to play with. Of course, the CTI bus limits
what you can really do with it vs. a QBUS/UNIBUS machine.
