Thanks guys. I'm going with the VSI student kit idea and playing with that.
It gives me an excuse to freshen up a bit. Haven't logged into a VMS machine in
over 10 years...
The CD is ODS-2. I burned it in 1999 to test a CD burner on an Alphastation.
I don't know anyone locally that owns a Vax or Alpha to borrow. My previous employer
has a stock room full of leftover Alphas and they won't sell me one or let me access one.
They'll sit on shelves as parts spares to keep a few alive to support customer problems.
They did an EOL on their product years ago. I used to manage the whole environment.
All my tools, mostly DCL scripts, are buried in a vault of old backups on DLT tapes that
I'm also unable to get access to. Never thought I'd need them again. Then this job shows
up with a year contract to give me something fun to do.
