Wrong! Unsupported means don't call if it don't work. It does not mean
it will not work. It does work and if the DEQNA is working as it should
(some dont) with few problems. It was done to retire the DEQNA as a
then very old design that was replaced by the better, lower cost DELQA.
You can get away with a DEQNA as late as 5.4-4, I'm running one!
I was a digit then, and it was significant to my projects so I was in
the loop as it were.

Everything VMS I've looked at says the
DEQNA is unsupported in VMS
ISTR that's correct, and that's unsupported as in "We never could get it
to work right, so you're on your own..." The suggested solution I've
seen is to replace it with a DELQA board. :) v5.2. Is that unsupported as in "don't
call DEC/Compaq/HP", or
unsupported as in "it don't work"? Am I
stuck with NetBSD then? Does
anyone know if NBSD will mop-boot over the DEQNA? I don't have VMS
older than 6.2.
