Maybe<br />I<br /><br /><br />should check the main page or something.<br /><br /><br /><br />I suspect there is no activity.<br /><br /><br /><br />o And two, is there any emulators that can be used until then?<br />Something<br />to<br /><br /><br />run openVMS on.<br /><br /><br /><br />There are at least three commercial Alpha emulators, and two of those<br />have<br />free versions which run under Windows:<br /><br />* Charon-AXP<br />* FreeAXP<br /><br />They both restrict the emulated system RAM and disk configuration but<br />are<br />enough to run OpenVMS. (The paid-for versions are somewhat more<br />realistic<br />in the configuration of the emulated hardware.)<br /><br />The third one is "vtAlpha" made by AVTware. I don't think they have a<br />free<br />version. Unlike the other two, vtAlpha does not require a full Windows<br />or<br />Linix host operating system; instead, it has basic Linux kernel which<br />boots<br />the x86-84 CPU and starts the emulator.<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br /> Jeremy Begg<br /><br />+<hr />+<br />| VSM Software Services Pty.
