Rumor has it that Chuck McManis may have mentioned these words:
Well, I'm using a VAX to teach my daughter C
programming. She likes
having the "weird" computer all to herself. (I'll have to get after her
about playing rogue though :-)
Where do you get Rogue for the VAX? Or, more appropriately, is it any good?
Rogue for the CoCo was pretty good - Rogue for the IBM/PC sucked bigtime.
(I hope that doesn't suprise you!;-)

P.S. I installed Tru64 Unix on my Alpha 150, but it wouldn't run right
because I dinked with the partitioning during the install. So, I installed
VMS/Alpha 7.21 on it, but I forgot you can't use a 2G drive for VMS on the
boot drive... so I installed a 1G drive instead, installed VMS/Alpha, and
it *still* wouldn't boot... Am I stupid, or what?
(I know, I don't have any error messages - it's at home, I'm at work, so
I'll followup with more info when I get it)...

Recycling is good, right??? Ok, so I'll recycle an old .sig.
If at first you don't succeed, nuclear warhead
disarmament should *not* be your first career choice.
