[net.wanted] DEC TRADE INS AND UPGRADES

(What do you mean the number's too large for a vax?)

While looking through the DEC add-ons and upgrades update
I natually wondered - what becomes of the old hardware/
software(?) that's traded in? I could be quite happy
with an 11/23 that someone out grew for a home computer.

After all, when I told the micro salesman that I needed 
a F77 compiler that wouldn't cough on variables that
hit 10**250 he said by a VAX. I said it wouldn't fit
in our apartment.
