I haven't fired this one up yet so I don't know if the basic software
was left on by the peron I got it from.  :-) If not, at least I now
know where to go to get it.

Is the DECServer image there as well?  I have a couple and while not
of much practical use, they might be fun to play with.

Speaking of which, is there any hardware documentation available on
DECServers?  Might be fun to try to make them into IP based Terminal
Servers.  BusyBox should run just fine on the M68K in them.

Somehow, I don't think V8.4 will run on my VAXStation 3100's.  And I
really should save the cpu cycles for real work.  :-)
