You can put a VAX4000 in a
BA440 on a desktop. If the desk can take the
weight, it would be possible to put a 11/750 on it. ;-)
Look at EPay. I am sure there will show up a nice VS4k60 (12VUPs) or
even VS4k90 (24 VUPs, IMHO).
I've grown out of my "computers bigger than I
am" phase
I hope that I will never grow up. ;-)
- someone picked up the VAX 6000 about a month ago,
and the city
hauled off the empty 4/690MP backplane/blower assembly yesterday during
"bulky trash week".
Shame on you. ;-)
I know of some people that reused empty cabinet sized computer
enclosures. The VAX-Bar is the most famos. There is somebody in the
Netherlands, that puted a refrigerator in the enclosure of a dead SGI
Challenge. The same was made by some people at a german Sun office for
internal use...
