What is available for the Rainbow, other than the standard DEC issue? Are there commercial packages? Public domain stuff? Also, anyone know of any user's groups?

For starters, try calling either of the 2 FIDO nodes that I run, listed in the .signature file. Also you might try calling the LCG.KERMIT system at 617-467-7437. This is a DEC system 20 that is used as a huge BBS full of PD software. LCG.KERMIT's login is: @LOGIN LCG.KERMIT KERMIT ^ | Does not echo. The is more generic and dec-specific software out there than you might think.
