If we can arrange for the manuals to be saved I am happy to scan them in
and make them available to bitsavers. After that I am happy for them to go
to whoever wants the paper copies. Maybe at the next DEC Legacy (which it
looks like will be some time in October now)!
Regards, Mark

How did I miss this! I could do with some older
VMS manuals! Which
version of VMS?
Dave
They're in a sales office and I forgot about them when you visited you could've taken them. I'm guessing at
the versions but it'll probably
be
VMS 5.5 and RSTS4 but I can check on Monday.
I think it was Rob that visited, I have just installed VMS 5.5 on a
MicroVax3100 which I think came from you (perhaps Rob).
There doesn't seem to be a proper set of manuals on the net anywhere so
they
would be very useful.
How many feet of VMS manuals are there?

I'm on the wrong side of the Atlantic, but I've got to ask: What
version of the operating systems? And are they manuals that are
already on BitSavers, if they're not please scan them?
