I can note here that we ran a 4-CPU 8350 (8354? :-) with Ultrix. Worked
very well!
This was also the machine which I used when writing the NetBSD vax SMP
support.

the vax smp emulator seems to support that theory.

I have a running 8350 as well, should you need a dump of the console
media or something.
It is, I believe, the physically smallest BI bus VAX, and therefore
interesting for those reason. It's the only such machine that I could
fit in my garage :-)
It's also the only multi-processor VAX system that I have and
equally interesting for that reason too. FWIW, I've always wondered
if the limitation to two CPUs was purely for testing and support
reasons - it doesn't seem that there's any reason why you could not
plug in three or even more CPU cards.
