As i'm not getting anywhere with my TOPS-10 endeavours, I thought i'd
try something else: older VAXVMS in SIMH's VAX-11/780 simulator. ;)

1). What would be the best/most interesting version to try? 2). Where
would I get install media for these older versions? ;)

  I have a bunch of older VMS distributions.   I don't know if they're
available anywhere else or not; I would assume so but am not sure.   At
least several 3.x and 4.x distributions, going back to 3.0.   Let me know
if they're wanted and I can put them up somewhere.

  I'd say 4.7 for speed and period-correctness, 5.5 for featurefulness.

  The last release of VMS to run on an 11/780 was, I believe, v6.2.
