I'm beginning to think there's never been a
PDP-11 in California.
In the past three years that I've been looking, I've never seen a PDP-11
come available in the Bay Area, not even so much as the common 11/23.
All this cool stuff always pops up on the other side of the country
(where I used to live, which makes it all the worse :)

Sorry, just wanted to rant and get it out of my system :)

Not true. It's just that California tends to upgrade the technology quicker
than the east coast which holds on to the old iron until it becomes
unsupported.
California ran Vaxen while NJ still used 11/70's.
