Since these systems are intended for use in medical image analysis (using the 8514/A - 8514 adapter/monitor), we need to be able to talk to these machines at reasonble speeds. At present, we run DECNet across a few small VAXen (730, 750, microVAX-II) and PDP-11's. Does anyone have suggestion for hooking up these systems to DECNet ?. If they were the old-style PC's, I would just use something like DECet DOS or Community DOS with a Thin-wire Ethernet transceiver from Excelan or Cabletronics, but I am not sure what is available for the PS/2 ?. If you have any knowledge regarding DEC-PS/2 connectivity, please e-mail to me directly, and I will summarize to the net if neccessary.
