I guess that's a use for my VAX 4000m500A. I hadn't thought to make it
a public swerver. Hm, something to think about. This winter, I can use
it for heat, too!

It'd probably be a good idea to get it some more reliable disks than the
DSSI crud it came with. Anyone got suggestions? It's got some SCSI-2
adapters, but I don't think they still make such drives.

The main problem is my lack of a stable IP address. :-/
