My site is running UNIX MACSYMA release 304 on a Vax 750.
 
The sad part is that somebody (for some reason) is buying the thing.
My boss wants me to try porting the system to run on a sun3  running 
a 4.2 equivalent version.  
 
I am apprehensive about this. 
 
Has anyone tried to do this and suceeded? 
Any advice would be appreciated. 
 
<<I>> know we ought to spring for a new release, for gawds sake,
but I only work here.

P.S. Which news group should this go to? Can't seem to find one.
