Yes, I understand about DEC pushing people towards VAX, and certain
applications where it isn't suited.
(Actually I believe the VAX *hardware* is suited perfectly fine… it's
just the available operating systems — VMS and ELN alike — which leave
something to be desired, but not enough to be desired to spawn a viable
third-party O/S, it seems.)
As for DEC not supporting the 11… I think that is considerably less
clear, now, since they just introduced PDP-11 C within the past year, and
just introduced the 11/93 and 11/94 last month.
