VAX 11/780 powered up and going :-) only a little :-(

However, since my 11/780 is really a "convertible" (I "just" need to pick up that KA785 backplane 650 miles from here.) So, if you have 11/785 disks spare, don't throw them away :-) I'm trying to get a DSD440 drive, then I can program my PDP-8/A to copy 8" disks (or I suppose I could do that with the VAX once I get its hardware debugged.) thanks -Gunther PS: what's cctalk(a)classiccmp.org?
