There are faster network interfaces for VAXen, just not Ethernet.   It
still wouldn't be an "apples to apples" comparison, but it'd be closer.

True -- FDDI would fit the bill.   The hard part is finding the infrastructure.   And while FDDI to 10 Mb/s Ethernet bridges are common enough, FDDI to fast Ethernet is probably harder to find.   (I'm not sure what DEC products, if any, offer that.   Gigaswitch, perhaps?)
