Our site is ordering two VAX 8700s to augment our existing VAXcluster consisting of 11/780s and an 8600. We are very curious about the console subsystems of these new machines and would appreciate comments from any users out there with BI VAX experience. Especially: What kind of software gets run on the PRO350 consoles? What happens if your PRO350 dies? Can you just plug in a terminal or something in its place? Who supports or distributes the console software? Software Services? Field Service? What kind of media does this arrive on? Of course, we'd love to hear about 'gotchas' before we get zapped... Thanks in advance, Scott Bailey Xerox Corp. (reply to sbailey@esgsdwco.xerox.com)
