My understanding is that the 3/50 is indeed some sort of VME system, as is the 4/110, with some address related oddities. But it has been a very long time since I booted a 3/50 up...

What is not a VME system was the 3/80, which I also have. -- Brad Spencer - brad at anduin.eldar.org - KC8VKS http://anduin.eldar.org - & - http://anduin.ipv6.eldar.org [IPv6 only]
