We got a MicroVAX I in late 1984 or early 1985 and later upgraded it to a MicroVAX II ($17K upgrade, IIRC). Our uVAX-II distro medium was TK50, but we kept that MicroVAX-I on RX50 distros until we stopped paying support on it (late 80s). > A really weird > story, which is why I remember it so well.

I think it was several savesets applied in turn, not just a monolithic 1/30, 2/30... so I don't recall the exact number either. >> I believe that the first "Micro" versions of VMS started with MicroVMS 4.4 >> when the MicroVAX family was added. I might still have our MicroVMS 1.0 floppies in a box, but they jumped from that to MicroVMS 4.x in sync with "regular" VMS once it was all part of the general release schedule. I think MicroVMS 1.0 only runs on the KA610, not the KA630. Not sure exactly when KA630 support came in, but it would have been mid-1985. -ethan _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list Simh@trailing-edge.com http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
