I just saw
this on /., the Google USENET archive has been expanded back to
May 12th, 1981! It's a great day for Classic Computing! Looks like the
oldest message in their archive is DEC related since it talks about a Unibus
Versatec interface card.
Depends on the group, I think... I found that comp.sys.cdc
goes back to February 1989, just a bit before CDC killed
off ETA...

<sigh> I'm not surprised, I've not had a chance to see what kinds of
PDP-10
and PDP-11 stuff can be dug up. Hmm, for that matter, it might be time to
check out comp.sys.harris, and a couple others...
