In January we will be starting a contest. The prize will be a free
registration to the OpenVMS Advanced Technical Boot Camp the week
of May 21, 2007. The contest will be for folks that have accounts on:
http://www.trysecureserver.com/ this is VMS web based email and
much more. You will have to have an active account and be using it in
some creative way (to be decided)
http://www.alternet.org/story/42641/ this is an awesome article titled
White-Collar Workers Unite! I really enjoyed reading this.
Keep an eye/ear out of something like podasts coming from
www.openvms.org.
Ok this is the first time I have every put in a book that I have read as a
Sue Fav BUT the Blue Nowhere by Jeffery Deaver is now one of my
favorite books, it could be because it mentions VMS for the first time on
page 76 "serious hackers use Digital Equipment Corporations VMS". I
guess I am easy to thrill
interesting article of a Web application running on OpenVMS which
handle a very high traffic :-) using WASD (thank you to Jean-François
and Mark Daniel)

Crossroads Systems to Exhibit at ITUG Summit 2006 (VTS, a fully

TapeServer also simultaneously supported many other systems such as

Linux® and Microsoft® Windows® systems. VTS is sold and supported
by HP's NonStop Enterprise Division on an OEM basis and stands as the
only virtual tape product certified for use on the HP NonStop platform.
Sue,
After reading your Sue Faves, I need to share this with you. I have a
very close friend in Arizona that built an ISP that is 100% OpenVMS. It
is a combination of VAX and Alpha Clustered. He uses VMS mail that is
POP3 enabled and is WEB accessable. He has been building his
customer base since 2001 in Florence, AZ and has done so well that he
finally quit his regular job to run his ISP. He has an antenna in his back
yard for broad band and keeps the VMS servers cooled down in his bed
room closet. Like he says, he never worries about going on vacation.
If there is a power loss the VMS servers will just reboot and start
backup and he doesn't worry about Hackers, viruses, or worms. Well
worms maybe, while he goes fishing.
