FREEWARE60/VMSFAQ ?Item 5.5.1
As an interesting aside, I was very surprised at how hard it was
to find this on the Web. ?The notion that everything on the Internet
is preserved for posterity is really becoming silly.
Up until 3 or so years ago, I took a break from running OpenVMS at home
(and only did the tiniest amount of VAX/VMS at work). ?Between work,
kids, and photography, I just didn?t have time (technically I still
don?t, but I?m back to running a cluster, and one other VAX at home).
?When I got my main system back up, I was surprised how hard it is to
find anything VMS related on the Internet. ?I still don?t have a good
idea as to what Archives of software are still available (stuff like the
site for DECwindows Freeware).
Hopefully with the move to x86, we?ll see more people interested in OpenVMS. As another aside, it is rather interesting how
many hits for VAX and
VMS I got that have nothing to do with what we think of as VAX and VMS.
Vacuum cleaners and virtual machines?
