The 326-page "VAX Book" attempts to answer most of the ques-
tions that University of Oregon users have had about using
VMS, EDT, the networks, statistics and graphics packages,
etc. Most of the concepts presented are illustrated by
means of annotated examples. A detailed table of contents
and index are included.
The book is available in either Digital Standard Runoff out-
put format suitable for printing on a line printer, or in
PostScript form suitable for printing on an Apple Laser-
Writer or other 300 DPI PostScript printer. I am also making
the raw .RNO files (and the code used to convert the guide
into TeX) available for those of you who are interested in
customizing the "VAX Book" for your own site.
