“u/FizzlePopBerryTwist/">u/FizzlePopBerryTwist came down here yesterday and thought this was the I.T. department. I could see how he would think that, but the I.T. department is actually on Basement Level 1. This is the Mainframe level.
This room is for users (you) to interact with the staff – get large printouts, restore backups, fix a jammed Decwriter, etc. This is why people confuse this for the I.T. department.
Games you play on it:
There’s a BASIC compiler on the computer, so you can also type in your own games if you want. Or any other program, for that matter.
There is Internet connection on the Vax, but it’s text only so you’re limited to email, Usenet, a Gopher browser, ftp and other various network commands, and the Lynx browser if you really want to use this World Wide Web thing everybody’s been talking about lately.
