[comp.sys.dec] Vax Manuals

naresh@ukecc.UUCP (10/28/87)

We just received a microvax II with microvms.

I think the major difference between VMS and MicroVMS is the manuals.
We have received a really tiny subset of the manuals. In fact the help
facility mentions referring to the manuals we don't have.

On talking to DEC, I was told to cough up about 1700 dollars just for manuals.
On top of that, the delivery time is about 2-4 weeks.

I was interested in getting older version of used manuals. If any one is having
a set of manuals, they want to get rid off, we shall be glad to pay for shipping and handeling.

I do not know about DEC's copyright about buying such used manuals. We do have anew set of microvms manuals and licence and I do not see any reason why DEC
should have any problem in our getting non-latest manuals.

Thanks.
