Now that HP have effectively discontinued VMS and associated hardware (I
know - a few years out, but once you announce a sunset date, it's
basically over) are we going to see hoarding of harware?   Are Ebay prices
going to start going up?

I'm hoarding hardware already.

But then I've been doing that for thirty years!   B-)

(I just got my first VMS-capable Itanium2 machine!)

What did you get?

  An HP zx2000.

Hello!
Dave, other way around. The circumstances are similar to your many
cats. You didn't adopt them. They adopted you. So this amazing system
that arrived adopted you instead of adopting him.

One of my older systems, not the Sun unit, is in the same position.

Funny concerning O'scopes. Mine is a thirty year old Tek 2213. Right
now all I need is a backup set of probes.....
