I would certainly love to have the original cabinet with the matching
blue stripe, but they are even more likely to have gone into the 
press by now, probably. I'll watch out for the BA11-K and will do
some rackmount trick, or may be in another enclosure instead of an
RA8x (that I really don't think I want.)

Anything SCSI seems like utterly unaffordable for the VAX, whatever
bus it is, ebay prices simply skyrocket on every VAX SCSI adapter.
So, I'll do without. Leaves me with DEUNA, a whole bus for one 
card! I won't cry if I don't get it

Ohmygawd, yet another card bus! Where is that physically located? Yet
another cabinet? What is the list of cards one can stick into the 
MASSBUS?

thank you,
