  Oh great, now what am I gonna do with my PRO-380?? :-)

P/OS does support the CNA.   And hopefully, some day DECnet/E will do likewise.   Just not yet.   I want to do it, but I only have about 10% of the necessary work completed.

You have parts of RSTS/E running on the PRO? That would be pretty cool. Now, if I could only locate the sources for the PRO devices drivers under RSX, as well as the firmware, I could consider trying to release a new version of P/OS... ;-)
