Talk:VAX 9000

It is believed that there existed Clone Models of VAX 9000 in Hungary, called TPA-11/9000 but their nature (in technological terms) is intrinsically a VAX 9000 although officially known as a clone. VAX clones VAX 9000 clone name

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

✅ This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.— cyberbot II NotifyOnline 00:28, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

Why was SID not used again?
The description suggests SID was an impressive success – Why was it not used after the VAX 9000?
 * Is it because DEC never designed another processor?
 * Which other systems were derived or inspired by SID?
 * How does it compare with todays tools? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.186.41.185 (talk) 20:23, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

First mainframe
Despite having made PDP-6 and PDP-10 mainframes for decades, DEC's own literature states that the The VAX 9000, Digital's first mainframe computer,. Now there are two possibilities, the people at DEC honestly did not know that their company had produced mainframes or they deliberately tried to conceal that they had produced mainframes and abandoned their mainframe production, causing damage to their customers who relied on them. Maybe someday I'll find RS that addresses this. -- Jamplevia (talk) 02:22, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
