Did they drop the crate it was in from a great height? Or was the vehicle it was being
transported in involved in a road accident? Or was it something else?
How much power would it require of the MicroVAX (I'm an Amiga/Speccy person, so have
no clue about VAXen or PDP's etc.) too be a DNS server and why replace it if it
worked?
Regards,

Yes, but nobody will care until the law shows up or we get hacked, in which case things
will still be my fault. He who bitches loudest gets what he wants, and I am outnumbered.
(We run a data warehouse for government/corporate contractors to locate certified minority
owned subcontractors for bidding disclosure compliance purposes.)
To make things a bit more on-topic, for the first two weeks of our operations our DNS
server was a MicroVAX standing in for a machine that was destroyed in shipping.
