What you really want to try for is a DECserver 90TL.   This will do Telnet
and LAT in both directions.   Let's not forget smaller/lighter and easier on
the electric bill.   Don't forget the power supply, or the mini-rack
(includes power supply), or the DEChub-90 backplane to power this.

Hello!
I am both relieved in thinking that I am not the only one on this list
to be considered like that, and jealous especially considering the
DECserver 200.

I've been trying to track down one of those beasts for a very long
while now. Practically the entire time period that I've known (in a
matter of speaking) all of you on this list, plus the few I know from
two other lists. (Three even.)

I got mine off ebay, a quick look on US ebay shows that there are
plenty of them available, e.g.:

DECserver 700-16:

DECserver 200/MC:

Hello!
Steve I have three here, all DEC Server 90s. They aren't exactly
friendly to the Linux-DECNet code. Whereas the 200s are more to their
liking (The code base that is.)

However there's something about the basic 200 that resembles the PDP
background for them......
