Yes. I have it, but have yet to get the ROMs in
the right sockets.
I went through what seemed like ten thousand MVAX2k pages and not a single
mention of any such thing ever being implemented. This list is truly useful. >It's not piranha-eaten... you just only have

Yep, but then comes PSU, and a proper case. I could
scrounge together a hard
drive, keyboard and a mouse, could steal a monitor and its cable (assuming
compatibility).
If you want to use it as VAXstation, yes, you need all of those. If you
want to use it as a MicroVAX, you wouldn't need the mouse/keyboard/cable.
Is there always a dormant graphics adaptor on the
board,
regardless of whether it's an MVAX or a VS2000, or would that have to be
added, like ethernet?
There is a default frame buffer. I have never used it so I don't know
its resolution, scan-rate, etc. It is active when the jumper says to be
a VAXstation, and not active when the jumper says to be a MicroVAX.
