Whee! it's finally here! I got my vaxstation 3100
from Tim in the mail today!
It's a Vaxstation 3100 model 42 a-bd with a mighty 8 megs of ram.
It works, too! Tim thoughtfully loaded VMS 6.01 on the rz23 it came with, and
after hooking it up to my apple2GS with spectrum (also a classic computer :)
I got the thing to boot up into VMS. VERY cool. :)
Wishing it had TCP-IP, but heck, if it had *everything* I want on it,
where would the challenge be? :)

Jim and any other Vax folk out here -- it can have TCP/IP.
The CMU IP stack is available free with the DECUS hobbiest rom.
