What is a DEC VAX?
The DEC VAX is one of Digital Equipment Corporations Computers designed to replace the PDP series. The VAX was released on October 25, 1977. The VAX and it's operating system VMS (later renamed OpenVMS) were revolutionary in many ways. In addition to it's 32-bit architecture, this was the first machine/operating system combination that was designed from the ground up. This produced an incredibly well-meshed system that worked extraordinarily well and lasted for a long time. In fact, the VAX machine was designed to last from ten to fifteen years.
