   Well...  it didn't hurt as much as I thought it was going to..  

 I have just run "SHUTDN ALL" after two hours of playing with PRIMOS 
 (on a DEC LA120 running at 300 baud... s-l-o-w...). 
My first encounter with VMS was on a Vax 6310 using a Decwriter II at 300
baud.  :^)

...
    I rescued this system about two months ago, and
finally got tired
 of it taking up space.  
Nice work, a Pr1me is on my want list too.  Can you post a pic on web site
somewhere?

...
    And, apropos of the Pick discussions, this machine
has INFORMATION 
 loaded and running...  haven't messed with it yet, tho..
