Any notes of your own or links on such? I'm old school myself (e.g., my first computer was a Northstar Advantage), but I never had the pleasure of working on a VAX.
- ChuckMcM 7y agoI kept some notes on my "House of VAX"[1] but really DEC's documentation was a wonder to behold, binder after orange binder on everything. A lot of that is online (scanned) on the bitsavers.org web site. [1] http://www.mcmanis.com/chuck/computers/vaxen/ http://www.mcmanis.com/chuck/computers/vaxen/
- pstuart 7y agoLots of cool stuff, but I'm curious for your elevator pitch of "VMS could do <awesomeness> but nobody does this today, if they did, they'd make cloud computing even more powerful". Lessons for the lazy, as it were :-)
