heh... they only stopped selling them the other year. originally they
were going take last orders on new systems mid '99 and deliver the
last ones end '99, but they extended it to sometime last year iirc.

and IIRC VAX will not be EOL at compaq till 2005 or thereabouts. Ie
if you bought a PC server from the Q (nee DEC) a year or 2 ago, you'll
probably get "sorry we don't support that product anymore" before VAX
owners do..
