There's always Unix. Most of them had some type of BASIC available,
but probably none as nice as Basic/Plus on RSTS/E.
I remember the EduSystems from the early to mid
'70s. My experience is
these ran on PDP-8s, not -11s.
Uggg you're right... I was thinking over several things at once and my brain
slipped a gear.
1) I was looking for the Edusystem25 for my PDP-8E. The only link I could
find about it was broken, so I was wondering if anyone knew much about this
OS, particularly the hardware requirements (my 8E is very "low end"), and if
manuals and media were around.
2) I was wondering if there was something besides RT11, RSX, or RSTS/E as to
a multiuser basic environment for the 11/44. Perhaps I'll go with RSTS, I
have a copy of that on an 11/73 here. Just curious if there were more
choices for a BASIC environment than those for my 44.
