I think you are right, but my memory is fuzzy on all this now. IIRC with the MIT/BBN pager modification, KA10's could run ITS or TENEX (aka twinex - which was the Tops-20 pre-cursor ). Folks like dvk or supnik are likely to remember, so I'll try to remember to ask one of them when I see them next. A number of DARPA contractors had modified processors and I'm pretty sure it took a processor modification to run TENEX. I loved TENEX until I was seduced by UNIX -- maybe its the X in the name that takes you to darkside ;-)
