Architecture Reference Manual,VAXclusters, Computer Programming and

Book, VAX/VMS Internals and Data Structures, and Introduction toVAX/VMS.
This can only mean one thing. ;)
Actually, I've started reading VAX/VMS Internals and Data Structures. Now I
know what a real operating system is. Alas.
Sweet, eh? I like it too. Very nice.
So. What's the *smallest* vax-11 (or other
machine) that'll run vms?
Wait...
MicroVAX 2000. Slow by today's standards, but the size of a lunchbox and
*very* cheap.
