This forum was recommended to me as a place to find people who appreciate
vintage computing technology, so it seems like an appropriate place to
advertise this:

The PDP-11/x was perhaps the best selling, most powerful series of
supercomputers in the world, going through over ten major revisions in it's
lifecycle. A PDP-11 setup would cost tens, if not hundreds of thousands of
dollars. It often required a whole team of people dedicated to overseeing
it's operation and managing it's moment-to-moment usage. They were used in
everything from business, science and academic research applications to
real-time control applications (PBX, traffic, industrial).
This is the front control-panel and user interface to the PDP-11/70. It's
been in storage for some time and the condition is unknown, but with minimal
signs of wear and tear it looks able to be restored to functional condition.

time finding many like it.
