I believe I will be in Philly the week of the 20th but without a car so I don't know that I'll be able to find my way to DC.
Hopefully something works out though. I'd love to get the chance to meet you.

CTAKAH is RSX-11M-PLUS V4.6.
RSX systems I'm using for testing purposes: RSX-11M-PLUS V4.0, RSX-11M V3.2, RSX-11M V4.0, RSX-11M V4.8.
Another versions I can run: RSX-11M V3.1, RSX-11M V4.2, RSX-11M V4.4, RSX-11M-PLUS V4.1, MicroRSX V1.0
Getting ready to bring up a micro 11/83, though I'm undecided on the OS. More than likely it will depend on what media I can scrape together here at work. Once running, it'll be on HECnet.

Well I do have PDP-11/23+, PDP-11/24 and MicroPDP-11/83, but sadly didn't run them for years. Maybe last time was around 2001
when booted the 11/24... Anyway, none of them has any network interface.

Define normally, I don't really have time for my PDP-11's any more. :-(
One HD has RSX-11M+ 4.6, and another RSX-11M 4.2, though I tend to prefer RT-11 or RSTS/E.

I assume he meant UALR_BBS circa 1984. I believe both Sampsa and I have it running if you're curious (wopr:: and chimpy::) . You can find it around on the net...

How much is this true do you guys think?
I just turned 44 and it is something I worry about. I know my skills
are nowhere near as currently relevant as they once were when I was
fresh out of school. I've been working on the same product for the
past 15 years, so that has also limited my personal development. I've
been branching out a bit lately, but not as much as I could have when
I was in my teens or early twenties.

Hi Marc,
Yes, me too - I'm 40+ and have lost some of the zeal for new tech in
recent years. However, on a positive note when I was looking around two
years ago for a developer position in bad economic times I had a couple
of good offers and now work for a company who hire people on merit
rather than age. I obviously don't know how long that will last, but so
far so good.
I think everyone, regardless of occupation, should always be mindful of
what they might do if their occupation becomes inviable. There also
appears to be less new talent coming up the ranks, well that's my
perception of the situation in the UK. For the past 15 years I have been
working with developers around the same age as me (give of take 5 years)
which might be explained by less talent coming on stream.
Mark.
