It would probably be confidential sales info. However, you could always
try phoning Compaq up and seeing if they've still got records. On a
semi-related note, what sort of Vaxen do people on this list have - I've
seen lots of discussion about the 3100 series and the 2000 series, but
not much more - does anyone else have a MicroVAX 3800, for example?
