That's probably what I was thinking about when I posted that original
number. The "Straight"-8 was produced in numbers around 3,000. I hope my
anecdote is right this time.

Although my
numbers may be wrong according to Tim's post, still though,
we're talking orders of magnitude of 486 boards produced more than any
PDP-8. Finding 486's 20 years from now will be about as fun as finding a
C64 is today.
You said PDP-8 computer; did you also imply the whole family or just that
one model? I would think the difference in production numbers could be
significant :)!
