I have also VMS, VAX and Alpha, but X86 Windows is where the 
applications live that I need.  Word or Word Perfect, Lotus 1-2-3, 
Turbo-Tax, the VT100 emulation that lets me talk to my VMS Systems, etc.

VMS jobs dried up and blew away about twelve years ago.
DEC itself dried up and blew away.

I swallowed my pride and worked at supporting "X86" systems.

I'd be thrilled to find a job working with VAX and/or Alpha and VMS.
As far as I can see, there are none available nor have any been 
available since 2004.
