The ISO at winworldpc works great, as does the SimH VAXstation-II/GPX
emulator. 5.5-2H4 DECwindows logon with the blue logo still looks cool!

Well, the authorization code pretty clearly states what this
license is:
the final hobbyist license, presumably minted in 2020-03-01.
So, on the one hand, it is basically not a personalized license.
On the other

after that.
