You've made that clear many, many, times now. :-)

On a more serious note, what I haven't seen discussed is the situation 
regarding the VAX Layered Products.

Did you just get a core set of the VAX LP source code, such as some of the
compilers, or did you get pretty much everything ever produced for VAX
by DEC including products like VAXELN ?
