I am an HP VMS Ambassador working at a customer site (Joint Forces Command) in Suffolk, VA.

They have 3 VAX 7000 Model 740s (4 CPUs) and
3 VAX 7000 Model 720s (2 CPUs) available for trade in.

These each have Enterprise licenses: Unlimited VMS User, NAS 200 and Cluster. We are looking to trade them for smaller Alpha computers (DS10, DS15 or DS20) or cash to purchase above.

Even if the hardware is on the older side, these licenses may have value for an Enterprise customer.

Please let me know of any interest.

I have contacted HP sales to see if there are any issues in trading/upgrading these licenses.

IIRC you can't transfer licenses this way. There's some kind of
transfer-fee to be payed.

But the transfer fee is independent of system size, so transferring
high end equipment in this fashion may be quite economical (so long
as the recipient wants to run on the transferred hardware).
