All this talk makes me wonder (and I know this
question has been answered
before, but I have forgotten): what equipment did they use to do the
computer graphics in movie Tron?
The "Flooney F1" which was a PDP-10 clone. TRON is apparently a PDP-10
opcode. What I can't remember is what OS they used.

Foonly F1...
I believe they ran a Tops-10 varient.
Actually, the Foonly ran a variant of TENEX, which was the predecessor to
TOPS-20.
(which reminds me - if anyone has, or knows where to find, a copy of any
distribution of TENEX on magtape, please contact me....)
