A good list, though the E220 seems very out of place. My most
used classic machine at the moment is a PDP-8/m; I've carved out a
permanent place for it on my desk. It contains an RX8E which is
connected to a arallel port adapter based on Chuck Dickman's design,
which is in turn connected to a small x86 SBC running Linux to give
the 8/m a disk subsystem.
My cat, Ophelia, enjoys sitting atop the machine, making this a
picture of two of my favorite things in the world:
