I have a DEC 500/AU Miata and a 500/AU from Compaq as far as I know,
The Comapq ran at 600Mhz 24/7 in a company I was employed with FreeBSD,
the DEC is untouched since I got it and has cache memory (3rd. level)
in difference to the compaq which has no cache module.
Besides of that I have a VAX4000/300 running VMS7.3, an VS4000/90
with VMS 7.3 and NetBSD and a VS3100/M76 with Open- and NetBSD as far as
I remember.
Most of the time they all switched off, because of enery bills...
Regards,
Holm
