More precisely, V7.3 will run on *any* VAX, including the primal VAX-11/780.
This level of backwards compatibility is unique.
I'm sure 7.3 has a very broad list of what it runs on, but
(considering I own the hardware in question), does it run on the
smallest of the small? VAX-11/725? MicroVAX 2000? In the case of
the 11/725 (and the 11/730), minimum memory requirements come to mind.
They are limited to 5MB (the MicroVAX 2000 can take far more memory
than that and is not a problem there)

Plain VMS 7.3, with DECnet, will run on a 11/725 and uVAX 2000. Just set
the MAXPROCESSCNT to 16 or 12 and AUTOGEN. DECwindows -- no way. TCP/IP
-- ditto. Maybe you could squeeze in a Fortran compiler. VMStailor will
do wonders if you're tight on disk space and do not need all the
optional components.
