Although directed at Tim or Allison (as the two other DEC-savvy folk on
here), this one's wide open. I got the attached E-mail from a visitor to my
web site. Unfortunately, I'm not that familiar with the hardware he's
gotten hold of.
Can someone else get in touch with him and give him a nudge in the right
direction? Thanks!

Hi there.
I need to beg for help. My department at university has just offloaded its
junk on me & I've got half a dozen VAXstation 2000's, a VAXServer 3550 and a
MicroVAX 3500. Your's is the only site that gives refernce to any of these
and
Digital wanted to charge me ?100 before they'ed
even give me the time of
day.
Can you help me with any VAX info or machine info. I believe they all work,
but the only compatible monitor I had blew up just before I aquired them.
I've
got the odd three-way cable to connect the mouse,
keyboard & monitor and I
would ideally like to restore the client/server setup that they were in
before
they were junked.
Thanks very much
Matt Harvey
