Which set ? (which boards, a KA650 or Ka655
?),...
This would be a 650. I'd like to find a 655, but I'm not holding
my breath.
No matter... subsequent efforts have netted me a DEC
3000/600 box which appears to be very much loaded with goodies
including the PMAG frame buffer. NetBSD/Pmax should be very
happy on it.
Don't think so. 3000/600 is an Alpha ;-))

So don't
buy disks, check first. (they can't deal with the freq of the
modern drives)
This particular incarnation appears to be a 10 MHz version
(based on my noting what the clock oscillator in the upper right
quadrant of the board is).
I check this with mine,
cheers,
