Only if you are willing to run VAX VMS on 8086 boxes witrh a VAX
emulator. For VMS to fit your list of requirements, its owner must
firts port it to the 64 8086 platform.
How would being supported only on HP-branded 8086-plus platforms
meet the criterion of "hardware independence" ?
My feeling is that the lack of support on J. Random Box contributes
to the reliability of VMS.
