Hey, I didn't have any information about FANG::
Should I put it as a real PDP-11/70 then? What OS is it running when on
HECnet?
(And it's always fun to see people actually use these machine in the
proper way...)

? The 11/70 isn't pictured, but you all know what those look like. It's
the one on the Wikipedia "PDP-11" page, though that's a very old picture
from when it was at my home.

we're awaiting its replacement)

FANG::, is on HECnet whenever it's running. (which is my tenuous link to
"on-topic")
