Can you describe all the PDP OSen and variants out there?
_ALL_ of them???? You

Nope.

Forth! There's a bootable forth around?
That'd be fantastic...
YEP!! I don't have it available right now, but others have a reference for
you.
And you want
me to _describe_ all of those...
I think I should have said 'list'.

I think that would be much more appropriate.
IN ADDITION, I JUST NOTICED YOU ASKED FOR:
DRUM ROLL, FIREWORKS, ENTERPRISE GOING TO WARP!!
PDP in general, as opposed to PDP-11 which everyone has
been focused upon. Did you mean PDP-11 ONLY - OR
dod you actually want a list of all PDP systems? While just
the list for PDP-11 would occupy a whole VERY LARGE
chapter in a book, such a list for ALL PDP would occupy
a VERY LARGE book.
Perhaps I exaggerate just a bit since just a list with one line
to specify only the name of the OSen would probably not
be too extreme - it depends on what you mean by variants.
Sincerely yours,
