Note the many PDP-10's and that newfangled PDP-11.
I actually worked with one of those. It was 20 years old when I got to play on it!

DEC. A once great company that never fully understood the idea of the personal computer. It would contribute to its demise.
Ironic that the early PC OS was developed on a PDP - PER Paul Allen.

Yup. Me too. Around 83-84 doing PDP-11 RSX-11 Macro-Assembler was SO MUCH FUN!
Ah for the good ol’ days.

PDP-11, PDP-10. Hot stuff back in the late 70s, early 80s.
RSX, RSTS/E, RT-11, operating systems. Good stuff.
Basic Plus2, DIBOL, programming languages.
Memories.

I had a class circa 1982 with a PDP-8. The core memory was cool. You shut off the machine at the end of the day, came back the next, turned on the machine, and everything was still there!
