[rescue] What to do with an orphan DEC Professional 350?

[Ken Hansen]

PO/S is slow, because it tries to be graphical on a
VT-320 "kinda" terminal interface, running at a low
baud rate...

The toolkit/compiler/etc were closer tot he speeds you
would expect for an RSX-11M-Plus system of similar
design...

I think you may have 128K of RAM on board, and 128K on
the daughter card, maybe more - the FAQ will say...
