Cool! Thanks Jim.
Ethan's and your response have exact the same hh:mm time stamp!
(at least on my computer).
For my 11/750 I will need a copy of some OpenVMS version first, because I
promised to wipe the disks, otherwise I could only get the system without
the disks. I wanted the cab with the three RA81's too, and the HSC70,
although I am not sure if the HSC70 will ever be useful as the L0009 and
internal cabling is not in the 11/750.
And I have read that you need besides the L0009 more stuff ... need to find
out what the HSC70 requires, and maybe I come to the conclusion that the
HSC70 is only taking up space ... I am not planning to build a cluster
(don't know anything about that stuff either), but ... never say never :-)
I posted a request for Zork (PDP-11) on Amazon a year ago, but
never had any response. So, your link to the VMS version is great!
thanks,
- Henk.

Onderwerp: VAX ADVENTURE, was Re: RL02 problem
From: "Gooijen, Henk" <henk.gooijen at

Sorry to drift a bit off-topic (RL02 problem), but I
have a question
regarding Adventure running on the 11/750, Ethan.
I have an 11/750 and would love to run Adventure on it :-)
Did you use the PDP-11 RT-11 Adventure version , or is there a version
of Adventure specific for for the VAX-11/750 ?
Henk,
there is a VMS version of Adventure on the net:
http://www.decus.org/libcatalog/description_html/vs0185.html#games
<http://www.decus.org/libcatalog/description_html/vs0185.html#games> (requires
FORTRAN)
This has an executable copy of ZORK
http://www.decus.org/libcatalog/description_html/vs0185.html#games
<http://www.decus.org/libcatalog/description_html/vs0185.html#games>
There are plenty of others - Google soon finds them! (try a search for VMS
ADVENTURE, or VMS GAME)
I don't know if it is possible to run the RT11 version under emulation mode
on the 11/750, someone else may.
Jim.
