Hi Matthew,

The microVAX will be yours. I'll wait a bit and see if anyone wants
any of the other systems. I do have two indy's available.

I used VAX (VAX780 for me) during my undergrad years as well (VMS and
UCB Unix). These days I find simh works faster than the microvax if I
want to revisit any VMS stuff.

I did have hallmark make a serial cable for the microvax, but it only
received info, did not send any. This was the same on two
microvax. So, I tossed the cable and first of my two microvax. No, I
don't have a pinout, I found a pinout to take to hallmark through
google.
