[rescue] [gstrekel at limra.com: VAX Cluster]

[ssandau at bath.tmac.com]

I don't think I'd ever be able to take all that hardware, but I'd love a 
MicroVax if it would be Ok to split this equipment up. That might be a really 
bad idea or sacrilege; I don't know. If it is, I am sure someone will tell 
me. ;)

I am in Connecticut (south of Hartford) today (Tuesday) and driving back to 
Maine tomorrow morning. I could probably stop and look at this stuff if that 
would be any help to anyone.
