    Ok, who still has there job

    No. All of the VMS systems I support are Alphas and we are going to Itanium within the next year (I hope). But, I do have great memories of working with VAXen. My first one was the 2nd VAX built in 1977 when I worked for DEC.

    3 x 1 HDMI Switch - for HDTV sharing

    Mike, I just checked the Monoprice.com web site and the one I have is not sold anymore. It was replace by a 5 to 1 switch. So, I cannot guarantee that it will work the same as mine. But, I bought something from them that did not work and there no hassle at all in returning the item.
