There are many RSX systems here.
I think we're over a dozen now,
between the museum and the systems in my home/work building around the
corner. But we usually don't leave PDP-11s up and running all the time.
Here's Dave booting one up just shy of four hours away:

Hey, I remember that interview! That was a fun day. Matt, the
journalist, has brought many friends to tour the museum since then.
Not exactly a flattering angle on me in that pic, but I'll take what I
can get. B-)

?? I keep an
Ubuntu 12.10 VM running at the museum to use as a hop-off
point and file transfer system.? It sure would be nice to not have to do
that. :)
Easy. Set up an RSX system instead. Then you can transport files between
DECnet and TCP/IP easily, as well as send/receive mail, and run
interactive terminal sessions, and more... :-)
