Summary

Ah, the storied Hesperos! The hesperos name has spanned every era following its original use on the network. What follows is an accounting thereof.

Historical Summary

This section is included from my old home page, The VAX Pirate's Lair, and as such is not to be considered accurate or up-to-date.

This machine is enormous. Not currently functional, as it is missing a hard drive, floppy drive, CD-ROM and memory. This is one of those massive full-tower monstrosities with 6 external 5.25" drive bays that only supports AT/Baby AT motherboards. It originally ran Solaris 7 for Intel. I plan to rebuild it as a Windows domain controller once I get the needed components.

Historical Specifications

  • Intel Pentium 233 MMX
  • 5.25" 1.2MB floppy drive
  • Internal QIC-80 tape backup unit
