More precisely, V7.3 will run on *any* VAX, including the primal

And there are some VAXen on which V7.3 will definitely not run. How
about rtVAX for example.
Not fair. No version of VMS ever ran on rtVAX - it was designed that
way. (For yes, marketing reasons.)
Oh, I definitely agree that I wasn't fair. But on the other hand, Wilm
did claim that VMS ran on *any* VAX.
I was also tempted to drag up the VXT1200. But since that one does not
have the name "VAX" in it, it could perhaps technically be disqualified
on that basis... The rtVAX on the other had is without a doubt a VAX,
even in name.
