Here you go, taken just now:

Not exactly quality portraits, but you get the idea. ;) I can take
some better ones if you guys are interested in some quality DECporn. ;)
I'd enjoy some quality DECporn. :p
Ok, you asked for it. NOTE WELL that I just unloaded the last truck
from moving into this building, and things are a HUGE MESS. I am making
progress, but I'm busy at work and there's a LOT of stuff in here. You
have been warned.
PDP-11/70, still partially disassembled from exhibiting it at VCF-East
in May:
http://www.neurotica.com/misc/DECporn/DSC_0781.JPG
DECsystem-2020, peeking out from behind a Cray J90 I/O cabinet.
There's another DECsystem-2020 next to it, hidden from view, but you can
just make out the nameplate through the J90's rear door grille:
http://www.neurotica.com/misc/DECporn/DSC_0782.JPG
How complete are your -2020s?
Row of racks containing two PDP-8/es, an 8/a, an 11/24, an 11/23, an
11/50, an 11/34, and a few other things, partially obstructed by a rack
of RA90s:
http://www.neurotica.com/misc/DECporn/DSC_0783.JPG
The VAX-7000 that I mentioned here a few days ago:
http://www.neurotica.com/misc/DECporn/DSC_0784.JPG
Tape racks a few big (newer) Suns, the PDP-11/53 on the far right, and
the (modern) production network facing the camera at the back of the room:
http://www.neurotica.com/misc/DECporn/DSC_0785.JPG
FPS AP-180V (VAX version of the famed AP-120), and a VAX-11/750:
http://www.neurotica.com/misc/DECporn/DSC_0786.JPG
Does the 11/750 work?
VAX-11/730, MicroVAX-III, PDP-11/44, with a Dataram-boxed 11/73 up
top, with Cray J90, Cray SV1, VAX-4000/700a, and another big Sun machine
in the background, Symbolics LispMachine monitor atop short racks, 11/84
chassis obscured on far right:
http://www.neurotica.com/misc/DECporn/DSC_0787.JPG
Heath H-1 analog computer, Genicom line printer, stack of VT50s and
VT52s, Cray YMP-EL98 in background, some RL02s, IBM System/36, etc:

Is that an iMac G4 I see?

God I love this mailing list, I have no idea of half the stuff people are talking about, but it's all nifty.

I had a PDT-11/150 many years ago, mid-80s. It was kinda fun, but
also kinda pointless. The only thing you can run on it is RT-11.
Incidentally Dave I'm still waiting.
Sorry my friend, things are really busy here just now.
Outside your place are a van of frustrated yetis and related
individuals in a brown van who're waiting and watching.
Then they're getting DRENCHED! ;)

Hello!
Regarding the space issue, working on it. It's a work in progress.
Regarding the PDT-11 family member, the fact that it can only run
RT-11 is the only reason why I'm interested.
So you're nominated regarding finding one.
Regarding the other two issues, I can wait, right now they are going
through garbage next door.

Dave,
All I can do is NCP LOOP your node, and FAL says no files found.
Is CTERM turned on or?

Maybe, but only after I "pretty it up" a bit. It only got mounted in
that rack last night (before that it was stacked up on a table) and it's
not in its permanent configuration.

Unrelated: but if you ever want an interesting and absolutely useless
task, you should try and set that up as a fuzzball. I found a bit of
a "guide" but couldn't get it working in simh, could prove
challenging to get the files to real disks though.
I ran it in the early 1990s, but I don't remember a damn thing about
it. If you could share the guide you found, I'd appreciate it.
Not extremely detailed, but you're more knowledgable about PDP-11 OSes
than I am ;). It at least mentioned where to grab the files.

Got it, thanks! I'll have to hack on this at some point.

I'd love one of those crazy Soviet PDP-11 clones they made home computers out of, I think the brand was Elektronika or something.
Might have to put my uncle in St Pete on a hunting mission.
