I even have some Pro hardware sitting in a corner -
lots of it hit the
thrift stores about 6 years ago - you could get a complete system for $10.
I even had someone come to my house to give one away! It has VENIX on it
and works, but he forgot the root password and I never had the time to
go crack it. In any case, I'd love to drop a larger disk on it (larger
than the RD52 that's in there) and spin up some BSD.
When you get this all working, I'd love to hear about it. I don't have any
Qbus PDP-11s better than a KDF-11, so I'm kinda locked out of 2.11BSD.

The Venix distribution was up on the DECUS site so you can get it
free... I'd have killed for the source code.
I've got it archived on QIC-24 or QIC-150 somewhere.
I also think Tim Shoppa had it up on his site.
