They were 3 different 11/780s. The 785 was a (DEC Germany as the Field Service rumor
went) 7400 Schotky rework of the 11/780 TTL as a midlife speed kicker. IIRC, it had a
higher clock and was about 1.5x the 780. The 11/782 was conjoined twin 11/780s in a
master slave config. I heard of 11/787s done with dual 11/785s but never saw them in my
Field Service days.

Would those be independent VAXen? Or would they be different CPU
cabinets of a multi-CPU 780? Was that 785 or something like that?
If you are less than secure (BSD 4.X) at least the
host can be up to date
with emulation. Running 4.2 with Sendmail 5 scares me. Emulated UUCP
and maps less so.
This is exactly why we want RetroNet to be a walled garden. Easy for
members to join and access yet separated from the Big Bad Internet™ for
that very reason.
