No way. RSTS/E is, by far, my favorite PDP-11
OS...but only v9+.
I'm definitely not a fan of the pre-v9 RSTS/E releases. Most of my
early computer knowledge was gained on a v9.4 system.
Interesting. Could you expound on that a bit?
I'm pretty ignorant about v9+. I first touched RSTS very early on - I'm
pretty sure I saw version 2A running (sneaking into the computer lab at
Carleton). Later I actually got paid to use it around V6/V7 but after
that I moved on to other machines.
(Always likes rsts, however. something cool about basic+ and then being
able to run rt11 also)
What would I notice/like/want running V9+ over running V7? I'd enjoy
hearing from someone who's used it a lot.
