  I'm with Pat on this.  I managed a lot of /780s;
they all had LSI-11s
 as the front end. 
Me too (and I'm sorry I said 11/23 ... I'll go look next time rather
than
trying to rely on neurons!)
  Also, never saw a /750 with a PDP-8 front end.
Managed a few of
 these too, though this timeframe is a bit hazy.  According to Gordon
 Bell
 
<http://research.microsoft.com/Users/gbell/Digital/timeline/32-bit.htm>
 the /750 was introduced in late 1980. 
That timeline was originally from DEC and was on the 40th Anniversay CD
(and the web site). I wondered where it had gone.
