Hehe, just a few weeks ago we were cleaning out the old file cabinets, and we came across the original purchase request for the Vax 11/750 w/ other equipment that our school made back in 1983. The 11/750, with nothing but the CPU, cost over $80000 .. ONE vt102 cost over $1200. Man, oh man. Now it's a prop for a bookshelf. -- Brendan Kehoe | Soon: brendan@cs.widener.edu [ Sometime this week ... pray! ] For now: kehoe@scotty.dccs.upenn.edu | Also: brendan.kehoe@cyber.widener.edu "It's a distinctly non-trivial task to decompile a stripped, encrypted binary into something that can be understood." - Keith Bostic, on the Internet worm
