Physically I'd say it's atleast not small, but there are larger ones out
there...
But I'll offer a definition of a large VAX.
A VAX that don't HALT when you press ^P on the console is a large VAX. :-)
That is, one with a real front processor. You could also say a VAX where
the FEP has its own file system.
How about it? :-)
