Well you all convince me, I'm $125.00 poorer :-)
But now I'm going to have to start looking for hardware to build a
RSX-11M "rack".
A the good old days of full semi truck loads of custom color 11/40,
then 11/34A, then 11/44's showing up on the loading dock along with
pallets loaded with RK05, then RL02's.

Yes. They are nice. I have one (Qbus interface). They are not as
abundant, however.
(but I was thinking mine had a pair of Tandon TM848s - maybe that's
just my Dataram PDP-11 clone - that one could also format floppies via
ROM on the 3rd-party controller)

Oh... and if you want to also dabble with the
PDP-8, the same RX02
would be useful on an RX8E
You'd be better off looking for a DSD, which also had PDP-8, Q/Unibus
interfaces. They use Shugart drives, and can format disks.
