Hrm. Question I got in the mail today:
(combination of three emails I got from him..)
I have the 20th Anniversary PDP 11/83 that I won at the
1989 DECUS in
New Orleans. I have RSTS/E 10.0-L running on it. It had been sitting
since 1992 and I booted it up about 4 months ago and it has been running
since.
I'm kind of partial to it. I go back to 1981 in RSTS/E with a PDP 11/70.
I would like to know how valuable it is?
It is painted Black and has the 20th Anniversary PDP logo on both sides
and the front of it. And I probably have the shipping papers that came
with it.
Thoughts? What *would* a machine like this be worth?
Bill (BTW, I'm looking for an 11/73, /83, or /93...)

I'm not any kind of authority, but I would guess that it is going to
depend on what it is exactly. His composite email says 11/83, but your
(his?) subject line says 11/83. If it is an 11/93, then it's pretty
uncommon in the hobbiest sector, I think. Also, wouldn't that make it a
20mhz J11, making it quite valuable? If it's an 11/83 then it would be
the 18mhz J11.
course if it's got a qbus scsi card, well then you know it's worth some
dough :-)

Now I'm doing it..... I meant...... His composite email says 11/83, but
your (his?) subject line says 11/93.
