I never heard of that model. I suspect it probably wasn't very successful because DEC started to move to the Alpha architecture not many years later. I worked with a lot of VAXen back in the day but I never heard anyone refer to them as "mainframes".

Aye, not common and for many will be a surprise as mention VAX and the DecVAX workstations and as you say, midrange setups spring to mind. I did some C work upon them late 80's and was very impressed and some profiling tool that was a whole new experience of joy. Will add, you could win a lot of proposition bets that Dec made a VAX supercomputer.
