VAX 4000-100 in Saskatchewan, Canada

Hi all, Umm... first: </lurk> I've been on the list for awhile (several months). I have quite a few classic computer toys - a pair of Commodore VIC-20s (one with 40K and the other with 37K RAM - if only I could have had them that decked out in the day :) ), some Commodore 64s, a Commodore 128, an Amiga 500, a Sun Sparcstation 20, a Sun UltraSparc 1/170E, and a couple of VAXen. Yup, VAXen. To my left as I write this is maroochydore, the VAXstation 4000/60 with 104 MB RAM ( :) ) running OpenBSD 4.2. It ain't fast, but it works and it's incredibly reliable. I also have a VAX 4000/100 that has been a bit of an enigma. I've had it for about three years (probably longer) but never really gotten it running. I played with putting OpenVMS on it but the learning curve was too steep (as much because of a shortage of time in my life as anything). Yesterday I played with it for awhile and tried to get it to boot the OpenBSD kernel over the network. The machine definitely talks to the network and requests the MOPBOOT.SYS file, and my network boot server (a mighty and dangerous Compaq Presario with a Pentium 133 processor and 96 MB of RAM... please insert oohs and ahhs here) happily delivers the file, but the VAX never boots. This is the same MOPBOOT.SYS that got maroochydore started on its path to autonomous booting, so I'm puzzled. And... I'm time-poor. maroochydore now has all of this RAM because I discovered that the SIMMs in the VAX 4000-100 fit it. Yesterday maroochydore had 32 MB of RAM (which isn't bad for a VAX - although it only had 8 MB when I got it). Now it has 104 MB, which is the maximum it's capable of having. Anyway... now I have this VAX 4000-100. It has a little less RAM than it did yesterday (2x16MB + 6x4MB = 56 MB, still not awful). It has three DSSI disks that spin up and sound healthy (the way a Canadair CRJ700 sounds healthy on its way from the mighty Regina International Airport to Toronto Pearson, anyway). But I want to retain my hair. I even have an AUI to UTP adapter so that you can use it on a modern Ethernet network. You can also use it on a thinnet network if you prefer, of course. The problem is that this may be the heaviest large-desktop-sized computer ever invented. I haven't weighed it, but it wouldn't shock me if it's in the 30 kg/60 pound range. This makes shipping it somewhat complex. So, if there is anybody in or near Regina, Saskatchewan that is interested in it, please get in touch with me. If you're interested and you're on the Regina-Calgary-Kamloops BC-Vancouver or Vancouver-Seattle-Spokane WA-Missoula-MT-Sidney MT-Regina routes, talk to me as I'll be driving those routes in May and, depending on how full my car is, may be able to bring the beast to you if you can arrange to meet with me and my schedule. I enjoy the list. Keep it up. Jim
