I started out my wunnerful IT "career" with a PDP-11 and RSX, plus a MicroVAX running 3.5 VMS.
My first "Unix" login was to a VAX 750 running Eunice, the DEC Unix emulator. This ran underneath -- not instead of -- VMS, and was a HUGE resource hog, so you'd get in big trouble if you used it during regular student usage hours. This probably did not help my GPA any.
Wish I could end my work life on OpenVMS, too, but not likely.
I really, really enjoyed VMS, but after that I really, really enjoyed my Amiga, and, finally, Linux. (What's not in there is that I really, really hated Windows 1.x, 2.x, and /386, NT 3.51, and OS/2 1.x. Not crazy fond of their later versions, but those early ones were nightmares incarnate.)
