Question 1: Do MicroVax 3100's have monitors, mice
or keyboards
or do they just use terminals? I've only ever used Microvax Is, IIs
and various full size Vaxen. Never owned any any 4 digit pizza boxes.
MicroVAX 3100's don't, VAXstation 3100's do.
Question 2: Even if they do use tubes and rodents, is
it possible to
flip a switch or change a jumper to use just a VT220 or something
like that and how do I do it?
If it's a VAXstation 3100 you can do this, if it's a MicroVAX 3100, I
honestly don't know if you'd need to. Personally I've never tried to hook
a tube to a 3100, and have never wanted to, but then I've only got one.
Also, I tried the FAQ at anacin but I've been
unable to connect to
anacin or other locations where I believe the information to be found.
Bummer, I hope it's not gone, I refer to the one table there regularly, and
don't think I've ever gotten smart and copied it. I can't get to it either.
