Steve,

COOL!!!!!!

I have a fetish for old (and odd) hardware...always wanted to pick up some old VAXes or Alphas for ****s and grins.

I read a story about a VAX cluster at a major company that had an uptime of 15 years. During the 9/11 attacks (I think) part of the cluster failed, fail-overing directly to the rest of the cluster a couple *miles* away. Goes to show the clustering capability of VAX/VMS I guess..Too bad HP/Compaq is killing VMS.
