I have often wondered about the people we find in the various
DEC Processor (and other) books. Were they models in staged
photo-sessions or were these candid shots from DEC facilities
and if so, can anyone identify who they might be.
Looking thru some of the books again I came across an interesting
photo on page 42 of the 1981 pdp11 processor handbook / pdp11 04
24 34a 44 70. If you take a magnifier to the picture you will
find the system presented in that photo is not a pdp11 but a VAX. :-)
I wonder what other DEC systems are contained in these photos?

I don't know any specifics, but they generally look like staged sessions to me. Most
of those pictures are far too clean looking to be typical DEC facilities, and the people
in them are generally dressed too nice for the typical DEC workplace as well.
Some look like they might be set up at DEC training sites (like the one in Bedford, MA
near Mitre), that's about the only place I could think of where you'd see a nice
looking arrangement of hardware and people dressed in suits and ties.

Some of the pictures were staged in a parking lot. They probably didn’t have a room big
enough.

Someone asked this about the covers of the old Prime manuals. The FAQ
has a list of identifications, earlier ones were in-house staff, later
stock photos were used. I'd be astonished if any of the photos were
candid.
I imagine DEC did much the same.

HP at least sometimes used staff.

There's one HP publicity photo I remember that I surely hope was staged.
It's for the HP9880 hard disk system for the HP9830 calculator. The
disk drive is an HP7900, a fixed/removeable platter drive somewhat
similar to an RK05. It the photo there's man next to it smoking a
pipe. A darn good way to get a headcrash.

One of the pictures, in the PDP8 book, I think, featured Jim Votava, my
instructor on several PDP11 hardware courses at PK2, so they were real
DEC people as far as I know

I know that a guy I used to work for, who later hired on at

Certainly tattoos on white collar workers were unheard of when I started at DEC, but
"business casual" was very definitely the norm there. Especially among
engineers, who were as likely as not to show up in t-shirts and jeans. For that matter,
that was my usual attire even the first 2 years when I did traveling software support, and
for that matter when I attended DECUS.
I distinctly remember a comment from a DEC customer at DECUS: "When I'm at DECUS,
I always seek out the people wearing t-shirts, because I know they are the ones who know
what they are talking about."

Reminds of something that happened at a previous job, where I was part
of the small Unix team. We had bought an expensive pile of HP-UX related
kit from HP and apparently also some HP consultant time for training
on said kit. First day of training, HP consultant shows up in usual
full on business attire. Starts talking about stuff (e.g. SAN management
and and clustering related things) in a very ... "HP business" kind of
lingo, which rubbed us rather the wrong way. So I interrupt him, pointing
out: a) we already understand Unix TYVM and are mostly interested in the
HP-UX specific details and b) drop the business lingo and start talking
plain text, we're Unix admins, not MBAs. With a heavy unsaid implication
of "You are wearing a suit while explaining tech, that makes it hard to
take you seriously".
So, step 1) said HP consultant _did_ drop the "HP business" lingo and
started talking plain Unix. And step 2) beginning the next day, he always
showed up at our site in shirt and jeans and was taken seriously now ;-)
That was ... sometime in the early 2000.
Kind regards,
Alex.

In about 1989 my company sent me to London for a 3 day training course
on 3Com 3+Open, 3Com's fancy new NOS based on OS/2 1.0.
The airline lost my luggage. I turned up on day 1 in a not-too-fresh
T-shirt and jeans. Everyone else was in a suit. I explained: no
suitcase.
Day 2, no suitcase. T shirt was now "fragrant". Some other students on
the course had adopted casual wear.
Day 3: my luggage arrives! I turn up in a fresh clean suit. Everyone
else, tutor included, is in jeans and tees. :-D
My company did _not_ adopt 3+Open or OS/2. On the basis of my
experience we moved to Novell instead. At the time, a good choice, I
still think today.

DEC Processor (and other) books. Were they models in staged
photo-sessions or were these candid shots from DEC
facilities

Yes, the photos were certainly stages shots, but at least
one person was not a hired model.
