Hi Camiel,
Is there a solution for Hobbyists to get the VSI 8.4 Alpha release?
Last time I checked/inquired it seemed like there was uncertainty about
it. And from what I understand the standard HP Hobbyists License PAKs
won't be of much use on a VSI system.
Thanks,
Jason

The system can actually run stock 8.4? I believe that at least the
latest 8.4 release from VSI requires a 21264 CPU.
VSI here :-)
While it¹s not supported, and hasn¹t been qualified, 8.4 - including the
VSI release 8.4-2L1 for Alpha - would probably run fine on a DEC 3000 or
4000. The one release that won¹t run on it is 8.4-2L2, which is the
performance build version of 8.4-2L1. Performance build means that the
compiler was told to optimize for EV6, and hence it won¹t run on anything
older than that.
