VMS on VAXes



This is an ugly OS, it'even worse than the OS that came with the IBM mainframes!

Just image a promt like this

>>>
a nasty tell-you-all command ``help'', an an awful editor "EDT" [has nothing to do with the marvelous editor under RSX11] and you'll have a frightening picture of this monster!

For me, it is a Tyrannosaurus Rex of the Operating System Evolution :)

At a second glance you may observe the "DIR" command an the find out that this has a vague resemblance to the wonderful RSX11.

I heard a rumour that Digital has ported it on Alpha stations. Is it true? I cannot belive it!
