[HECnet] HPE OpenVMS Hobbyist license program is closing

[William Pechter]

Anyone know the earliest version for a Vaxstation 3100 M38 and I would love to find out if there is a source for VMS 2.2, 3.x, and 4.x... My tapes are long gone as are my old Vax customers. 

I would love to get my Vaxstation on HECnet one of these days.

VAX/VMS 4.x runs on the MicroVAX-III.  I booted it once on my KA-650, when I got it.  Then when I went to back it up, the RD53 died.
