Subject: Re: VAX? or PDP-11? You bet the judge.
The J11 was used in the Pro 380 personal computer, and was
used as an embedded processor in many DEC devices, including
the HSC60, HSC90, and HSC95 storage controllers.
The J11 was also used in most UK traffic light control systems, so I've been
told....
Oh, apparently the Thames Barrage (massive flood control device on the River
Thames in London) is controlled by a VAX 3100 - the company I work for used
to maintain it :)
