The #OpenVMS 6 documentation is now placed on the shelf, next to the documentation for VAX/VMS 3, VMS 5, OpenVMS 7, and #ULTRIX 32. Still missing are VAX/VMS 1 and 2 (unlikely to ever find them) and VAX/VMS 4 (apart from the three folders I have). Of course, RT-11, RSX-11, and
And once again, my collection of DEC documentation is growing: now, a (probably) almost complete set of #OpenVMS 6 (for #VAX; OpenVMS for #AXP 1.5) documentation. The Programming series is complete, with a few books missing from the System Management and User series.

OpenVMS 9.2 is meant to be run as a VM or on a couple specific HP servers, but I was able to get it to run "bare metal" on an HP Z240 workstation. It seems like as long as you have a UEFI BIOS, a real serial port at COM 1, and a LSI 1068E based RAID controller it'll install fine.

Who had an account on an openvms system?. I remember a very cool alternative to elm / mutt called posta!. And built in file versioning.
I bought a VAX! As far as I know, it's actually the fastest VAX ever produced, the 4000-705A (before the Alpha, anyway). It uses the KA694 NMAX++ CPU, and I've ordered the maximum 4x128MB memory config to add to it. I spent the week waiting for it to arrive working in a VAX
