Still here, always lurking.

Since moving to Texas and giving away 80% of my DEC/Compaq/HP kit I've been slowly rebuilding.  Have my MV3100 running occasionally.  Acquired a 466MHz DS10 which I swapped motherboards with a 667MHz DS10L and it's running V8.4 occasionally.  Slowly putting together a C3000 BladeEnclosure hoping that when OpenVMS/x86 comes out next year I can get a x86 blade that will run it.

Built a PiDP11/70 for blinkenlights fun.

Bought a real PDP-11/53 in a BA23 chassis for my rack.  Sits there in between the MSA 2000 G3 SAN controller and the MSL2024 tape library.  Shooting to run RSX-11M on it.

Built a 6-host Pi rack for running Simh and other emulators and various linux project.
