None currently running, but there are a few nice VAXen available for restoration:

- 1 VAX 11/750 (condition mostly unknown), in the warehouse
- 1 VAX 11/785 (missing CPU boards and probably others), on display in the museum

There may be a MicroVAX or two in the warehouse, possibly more than I remember.  There was definitely an AlphaServer 2100, but while that can run VMS, I suspect you were more interested in VAXen.

The 11/785 is a long-term loan from a member, but I imagine he might give permission to fix it up in the unlikely event that someone comes up with an 11/785 boardset.  Of course, then we'd need to get 3-phase power run into the museum room...
