Hi all,
Happy to register to this new Hobbyist OpenVMS website.
I'm always here, even if I don't traffic very much into comp.os.vms (remember CENA).
I'll try to post some pics of my home setup (Two Alphas / Three HP PCs).
May main home system is an Alphastation DS15A under Vms 8.3 and with about 340 Gb of disks and a DDS5 DAT for backup. The PCs have more than One Terabyte of storge however, but I record some TV programs via a Digital TV receivercard (whe have now Digital Terrestrial TV in France, since 3 years, about 22 free channels).
Refards,
Patrick

May be you can receive some of the muxes in UK (note we use 8K COFDM modulation and not 2K like in UK, but with a recent receiver it may be OK). In France Digital TV is called TNT (Television Numerique Terrestre).

My avatar is a lovely Dwarf Rabbit born in September 2003. On the avatar pic, he was only 8 weeks old, the day he comes at home. You can see pics at 6 months old on my web pages

My DS15 (I also have a DS10) is,used to process digital pictures (I have a lot of digital photo cameras, from 2 to 8 Mpixels) and to listen music (midi and mp3). It was rather difficult to buy the DS15 sound card (the 3.3V Ensoniq model) because the sound card was never validated under VMS on the DS15 (however it works great) and HP never wanted to sell me the system with the card !!. It was necessary to buy the card separatly from a broker.
