Actaully all you should need to do is just order the CD from Montagar for
$20. You'll really need more RAM though, unless you
find a version of OpenVMS
older than V7.2. I've found that 112MB is the minimum for acceptable
performance when running DECwindows, or 96MB without DECwindows installed.
Thanks! I'll go about locating some more Ram
;)
