Apurdue.270 fa.info-vax,net.unix-wizards utzoo!decvax!pur-ee!purdue!cak Tue May 4 13:17:39 1982 VAX-11/730s, anyone? We are considering purchasing an 11/730 to run 4.1bsd and handle our text processing load -- mainly to push troffs to it over a local net. A few questions crop up...

1) Has anyone got UNIX running on it yet? Do the '7ZZ' ifdefs in 4.1bsd properly reflect a 730?

2) Does anyone have any idea how fast/slow it is running 4.1? We'd like to put 3-4 users on it, if that's not unreasonable, but would probably live with it being just 'standalone troff'.

Thanks in advance, Chris Kent (Purdue CS Dept)
