I have a spare DS5k "Personal Decstation" Model 25, with 40MB of RAM
just collecting dust at the moment.  It has no floppy and no SCSI disk
at the moment... I've been away from the port-pmax group for about a year
so a few questions:

  1) Is the above CPU supported/been tried?
  2) Can I use "any old SCSI disk" ?
  3) Can the kernel go multiuser?
  4) If [3] is yes, how stable is everything? is anyone running any
     real apps like a news feed or supporting several users doing anything?

Thanks.
