You know what? I am lame. I didn't realize SIMH could do the VAX 11/780.
After searching around a bit I read a message from Bob Supnik circa 2004
saying that making an 11/780 simulator would require practically a whole
new simulator and then assumed that no one went forward to make one. Duh.
Anyway, thanks for the tip. Now, does anyone know where I can get VMS
3.2? ;)
