[comp.os.vms] WANTED: MicroVAX-II or VAXStation-II

aalexand@aludra.usc.edu (07/13/90)

I am seeking a used MicroVAX-II or VAXStation-II to support my dissertation
research.  Basically, I need a VMS / Q-Bus system for available interface 
drivers / analysis software / controllers and possible X-Windows capability 
(on a VAXStation-II) to display the output from minisupercomputers and the
CRAY Y-MP.  As I am fellowship student cost needs to be as low as possible.  
However, I do have some savings that could be used to fund this purchase.

As an alternative to arranging a direct purchase some commercial enterprise
might accrue a substantial tax benefit by donating such a system to USC in
exchange for a letter acknowledging the donation and setting the value of
the donation at the original purchase price minus some reasonably low rate
of depreciation.  USC site licenses would then supply all needed software.

In any case, thank you for your kind consideration of my request.
