I'm actually going to get my first PDP11 this
summer
I still can remember when I bought my first PDP-11. It was a VT103
box with a DSD 880/8 for the hard disk drive and floppy. I had
already used RT-11 for over a decade at that point, but could never
cost justify my own system.
Have you decided which OS(s) you are going to run. If you need help
with RT-11, perhaps I can find some manuals for you. But they are
very heavy. Even if free, the shipping will cost a fair bit.
My original inroad to classic computing was the discovery of Unix many
years ago (well, many to me), so I am admittedly biased towards it.
However, I plan on trying out all the major OSes that ran on machines
like my future one(s), including RT11.
