Hello again from Gregg C Levine
Every time I examine that list, I don't see any machines that are 655
based, which happens to be MicroVax based. And I get it to boot under
SIMH-VAX. But in this business I keep an open mind. So the question is
still the same. What models are not supported is a good question, and
one that should be posted to the original developers, which probably
are on this list.
