It's at LSSM; we got it running last week. It sits next to our
VAX-7000. I installed VMS on it today; it will be available on HECnet
as BIGAXP 61.55 whenever it's up. (I owe you a whole slew of address
assignments..)
Eventually we hope for it to be a triple-boot machine: VMS, Tru64,
and NetBSD.
It has four 200MHz 21064s and 1.5GB of RAM.
