I'm sure it's still available today, in fact I've seen some of the on-line
listings - what I meant was that a *customer* could get the listings for the
early uVAX range. The listings from the MicroVAX 3100 Model 10 onwards were
never on the VMS Source Listings fiche, AFAIK; which is a pity since VAXstation
3100 series could do with a patch to change the way boot drivers access SCSI
disks and so lift the 1.073GB restriction.
