Very nicely done, and really impressive work.
 
This is why I was eyeing down a 18" Mitutoyo caliper for a little bit now.
Making a prototyping extender for a machine like this would be an invaluable troubleshooting tool.

   I am pleased to announce that we at LSSM have just gotten our
VAX-11/780 up and running!

   Now we have to clean up the debugging and repair mess, clean up the
cabling, arrange for a permanent system disk, etc, then we will declare
it an "operational exhibit". Once that's done, it will be on HECnet
whenever it's up and running.

   Of course all are welcome to come to LSSM in person and run the
machine. (feel the rumble in the floor, etc)

              -Dave
