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.
