Off-Topic but this seems like a good pool of people to ask.
I hope its acceptable use.

I'm looking for information on licensing VAX/VMS.
Would it be possible to get a legal license to VMS 5.3?
Are licenses tied to a particular machine or a particular
time frame?  If someone was selling an old VAX that
ran VMS 5.3, would the license still be valid for that machine
today?  Would it still be valid after the sale?
Would it be transferable to other hardware or even a simulator?
