VMS/RSTS/RSX manuals available, SOC, DECdirect books, Newmarket UK

[Mark Wickens]

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
