I was quoting my memory of a DEC ad in the WSJ, which now that I go check, says the -11 was "the best-selling computer in the world" (the ad was in 1980). There are a number of possible explanations as to why it makes this claim: - some marketing person made it up - they were only counting things that were general-purpose (i.e. came with mass storage and compilers) - they didn't consider micros as "computers" (many were used in things like printers, etc, and were not usable as general-purpose computers) Etc, etc. Noel
