Hehe, I left #netbsd installing on my #vax (a lowly #MicroVAX 3100/30, with 32MB RAM and 25MHz CPU) over the weekend. It's running on the network now, but is *spectacularly* slow, even on NetBSD 7.2 😂
It takes about 80 minutes to boot, and 2-3 minutes to login on a serial console.
It's effectively unusable, but was an interesting #retrocomputing exercise to get up and running. Ah well, back to #VMS.

Habe heute den "vergessenen" Rest abgeholt. Nochmal drei AlphaStations, eine weitere #MicroVAX 3100, ein fetter Server, ein paar Hubs, Tape-Laufwerke, und weitere Unibus-Karten.
Das reicht an DEC-Hardware für den Rest meines Lebens. 😂

Die #MicroVAX 3100-80. Komplett, toller Zustand und ein großes Danke an denjenigen, der einen Zettel mit den Login-Daten hinterlassen hat. 🥳
Die wird meine Sammlung definitiv bereichern und bleibt. Die -30 gebe ich vermutlich ab.

@inlovewithpda I love #OpenVMS because I can still use my Jaz drive 😄
I mean, I could /probably/ use it on a Linux box, but my #microvax is the only scsi hardware I still own

:fediverse: Now that there are so many people here, maybe there's a chance:
🖥️ In the 1990s, I used a #MicroVAX II with a #DEC #VT320 #terminal like the one shown here, but with an original black plastic case for both the monitor (white monochrome) and keyboard as sold new by the vendor (Evans & Sutherland).
🔎 Has anyone ever come across one of these with the black case? Surely some of these rare models were saved from the landfill.
