This is not merely a problem with lack of simulation. The goal of the simh simulators is to simulate what was really supported on the original hardware that is being simulated. DEC didn't support TU56 DECtape on any VAX system, hence the device isn't included in the VAX simulators... - Mark _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list Simh@trailing-edge.com http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
