FYI. ComputerWorld appears to be gathering data from users for a story
on VAX systems. --Keith

Hi Keith,

Sorry that note was scrambled, and thanks for writing back.

This was my original note:

I'm looking for longtime VAX users for a story in Computerworld and I'm
writing
to some of the people on the VAX Usenet list.

I'm trying to learn about the reliability of the hardware, why it's
still being
used, HP's support for it and third party support options, and migration
choices.

How are you using VAX? How old is the system you are on? How long 
will
it last?
Are there parts available? Is system reliability declining?

What do you do for support?

What's your migration plan?

Thanks for your help. Can I call you?


Sincerely,

Patrick Thibodeau
