I have several Vaxen, but they are not the machines I use every day, and 
they are not connected to the internet. Given the environments in which 
VAX and Alpha boxes are used, I would expect there to be many in 
environs where they may not be connected to the internet, and where the 
end user environment on the desktop pc's is tightly controlled...
