Saturday at the local swapmeet, I picked up a MicroVAX 2000. It is a
neat little package, but now that I have it what can I do with it? And
how do I do it?
This one is a Model 625NT-AA, and comes without harddisk. It appears
that there is a resistor board installed to provide a load comparable
to the drive on the power supply. According to a rather sketchy spec
sheet that I d/l'd from DEC, it can handle a maximum 318mb local disk.
Based on the 53C80 chip installed, I presume that the drive should be
SCSI.
At the rear of the machine are three sub-D connectors, one each 25-pin,
15-pin, and 9-pin. What are their functions? The 15 and 9 are
presently encumbered by a plugin box that has three RJ45(?) connectors.
Network link?
I have not had any real success in discovering anything in the way of
documentation for this critter on DEC. Am I looking the wrong place?
