  I am looking for some information on the Micro VAX II.  The
  numbers from DEC states that it is close to the speed of a 
  VAX 11/780.  I would be interested in hearing from some
  people who have some experience in using the Micro VAX II.

  Is it as good as DEC states it is?  

  How much memory and disk do you need to make it a useful
  UNIX environment.  

  How many users will it support with respect
  to the amount of memory and disk.

  What flavor of UNIX will run on the machine?

  Is there network suport for this machine ??

  I would appreciate any useful information. Thanks.

  Tom Bradshaw.
