I've been saying for some time that I think VAXen breed in the corners - I
don't quite know where all of these VAXstations came from. (I still want a
VLC, though - just saying.) -- Ian

There is an old Vulcan saying: "Only Nixon could go to China."
If you have some storage, then you can lose a
microcomputer.
Oh, yeah.
If you lose a minicomputer, then you have a lot
of storage.
I recently found an 11/730 I thought I had to get rid of in 1994...
(turns out I got rid of a spare we bought to harvest parts from. I
kept the working one. Now to refurb the TU58)
If you lose a mainframe, then you have ENOUGH
storage.
Hasn't happened yet.
