The 4000/90 is quite modern, very fast and just makes fun. 1GB limit can't be
true, and if so, it just limits the size of the root partition. I have /90s
running with 2 gig drives, and the comparable VAX 4000/105A runs with a 4,5 GB
drive here without problems. CD-ROM... okay, VAXen don't go with every CD-ROM,
but as i saw on my 4000VLC (also with 2 GB drive), old Toshiba drives work fine
for installing VMS on them. In NetBSD you don't get any problems, if you
install via network, as NetBSD uses it's own CD-ROM drivers.
