Decstations were Ultrix-only machines based around the MIPS archetecture. They
were considerably faster than comparably priced vaxen (if memory serves) and
made fine workstations and light fileservers. But no, it won't run VMS.

Hmmm.. KN01 is a DECstation (MIPs processor), not a VAXstation
(VAX processor)... Is there a NetBSD port that will run on this
box I wonder... The video SIMM is another clue (for those of you
keeping score)...

Oh oh, is there going to be a problem with this? You are right it's a
DECStation (I wanted a Vax Station)!
So now I'm really confused as to what I have.
