Ladmo addict Registered: 04/09/2004 Posts: 524 Loc: Oklahoma	Does anyone know a good source of information or documentation (besides Classic Computing newlines) for vintage computers such as the DEC MicroVAX? Thanks

Some of these might help though: http://home.iae.nl/users/pb0aia/vax/vs2khw.html http://anacin.nsc.vcu.edu/~jim/mvax/mvax_faq.html Hugo

Ladmo addict Registered: 04/09/2004 Posts: 524 Loc: Oklahoma	I am suppose to be able to aquire a MicroVax within the next couple of weeks. I used to work at Digital Equipment Corp, years ago (in Phx, AZ) running a production line that made the LA-120 teleprinters. I have no knowledge of the MicroVax's so pretty much ANY information documentation would be helpful. I could send/post pictures that I received from the current owner, if that would help...

Don't suppose it can do any audio streaming... dww _________________________ The only easy day...was yesterday!
