Put in one CPU and you had a VAX 8200; put in two and you had a VAX8300.
There was a mid-life kicker, which was a slightly faster CPU and that gave
you
the 8250/8350. I'm sure I put three CPUs in the one I had back at DEC and
it booted and (this is where I'm hazy) called itself a VAX 8370.
I'm about to pick up an 8350 which the previous owner says has four cpus
and calls it an 8354.
I can report back later in the summer after I have picked it up.
