Ahh ok, not such an old fart after all. ;) I've got you beat by
five years.
Sounds like a good pile. My house is overflowing with PDP-11s
(and a few PDP-8s and a PDP-10 for balance!) and I really need to
find some time to repair some of the dead ones. My 11/34a doesn't
like to boot; that's next on the list.

Funny, I don't think my PDP-11 is *that* old. It
seems to date from
around 1986. I can't call a computer that was built while I was
doing
my 'O' grades "old", I just can't...
Well, I think a lot of us here are old farts...you're just an
older fart than most! ;) [dave

What '11 hardware do you have, again?
Old stuff? The aforementioned 11/73, a Microvax 3300, some Sanyo
CP/M86
machine, an Osborne 1, a ZX Spectrum, some not-working Epson HX20s,
and
a couple of BBCs.
