> I got really lucky.  I met my (to be) wife while
wearing something like 7
 > different hats at a startup ISP.  We had a horrid ice storm in 1996 that 
  So, she learned that I was too geek to live, and has
set about trying to
 domesticate me.  It's caused many a battle.  She understands my desire
 to collect computers, but doesn't share the same joy.  In fact, she's
 been suggesting I get rid of my PDP-11/34a, after we bought it together,
 and she didn't realize how large it was.  There was much rejoicing at
 the thought that she would find it interesting learning old technology,
 but she lost interest immediately upon seeing a 6' rack being trundled
 into the living room. 
  So, I may be looking to sell/trade a PDP-11/34a, in
the Toronto, ON
 area, in the very near future. :( 
C'me on, there's always anpther solution......
