Today's
Vax really is a 6000 series. An old beast of a machine with white metal
paneling, wheels at the bottom, and a tape drive up top. This is the
kind of Vax you could really make a refrigerator out of. Or a battering
ram. The machine you see here is now deceased, sent off to a recycling
center to be crushed up and salvaged for its base materials. Back when
copper was worth lots of money, this was the right thing to do. Today,
however, it would probably be better just to use it as some sort of
building foundation.
