True, that would make an interesting set of vectors. So we've got
CPU - KAxx
Memory - 8, 16, 24, 32 MB (at 32MB my uVAX III never swaps)
Disk - NFS, MFM, ESDI, DSSI, SCSI
Of course we could simply use the same peripherals for several types of
CPUs (at least in the Q-bus side of things we could use KA630, KA640,
KA650, KA655, KA660, KA670.
