It's already better since it comes with a VMS image already licensed and good to go, as opposed to requiring the transmission of license files via a very bad faulty serial line emulator.

It also installs nicely in a Windows environment.

Only problem is that the changing the default emulator configuration runs into lots of problems with relative vs absolute paths.
