The big DEC-7000 at LSSM is looking longingly at you, Jason. ;)Sigh, I know. I have had some, erm, distractions, but also am at a loss about the I/O subsystem on that machine. IIRC, it’s all XMI, which we can re-factor from the VAX port, but the disk controller is what worries me. Anyway, I promise to spend some quality time with my re-factored Laser / TurboLaser code while I’m on the plane back to SF on Sunday.
Slacker. ;)Yes, it's all XMI, essentially a VAX-7000 with the modules in the top card cage replaced.
Let me know when you need testing help. I can set you up with remote console access reasonably easily. Or you can just come visit. ;) I think you'll love LSSM.
