It was 1995. There was no Wang® VS™ newsgroup... no Wang® Labs home page*... What was a VS person to do? This site was my answer to that. Welcome to a friendly place for the many thousands of people worldwide who are working every day with Wang® VS™ systems.
(*There is a Wang® Website now: Wang® Global)
(Oops! That one is gone. Try this one: VS WebCenter at Getronics)
OK, gang -- here it is, without apologies: A place to give and get information on the unkillable Wang® VS™, a line of computers that has persisted for over 25 years in this confused world of unix and client/server experiments.
More than ten one thousand VS computers are in operation around the world
as you read this. They range in capacity from small systems that support a
handful of users to large systems that serve 500 or more users. They run
applications written in COBOL, BASIC, RPG, PL/I... even <eek!>
FORTRAN. They run Wang® PACE™ database applications, imaging, very robust
communication networking with seamless email, file transfer and remote logon
services that works flawlessly across tens, hundreds or thousands of systems.
They serve as SNA gateways and print servers to mainframes. They
connect to TCP/IP networks and support ftp and telnet. Gosh, they're
nice!
