NO, just for fun... I doubt very much I could improve on the performance 
for running the VAX instruction set. I have not looked at the prints 
carefully enough to determine how much of the instruction set is 
hard-wired (if any), I wonder if it would be possible to run a different 
instruction set entirely.
