My monster lives!
After being brought home in a dozen parts, cleaned with Windex and an air
compressor, and reassembled, my Alphaserver 4100 is once again up and
running OpenVMS. There were a couple minor snags while I went up to the
attic to find a CPU fan, move a ton of stuff to find an electrical outlet,
and reseated the memory modules but all that is behind me now.
It is using lots of electricity and making lots of noise while displaying
a Motif session in a 19" liquid crystal monitor without a stand...
What could be better than this?
