You just made my night - I think I'm making that first image my new

Wow. That's a rather, umm, unique combination of machinery and carpet, but
somehow they work together. Sort of.

I couldn't tell from the photos - is that an HSC50 on the far right,
or if not, what?

Wow. Nice setup. I could probably only field about 50% of that rig.
I'm especially envious of that old Planetfall package. I have the
later boxed folio for the C-64 and various "Lost Collections", but
none of their PDP-11 selections.
That would have been awsome to "stumble into" at a show - I don't know
that I can still emit PDP-11 instructions in raw octal from memory,
but I'd do OK with a pocket guide and a front-panel.
So I wonder what OSes they brought to show off. With that kind of
gear, you pretty much have your pick.

Holy smokes, that is an impressive display. Having just hauled an
identival 11/70 and 750 makes the whole thing extra impressive, it is
_heavy_ iron.
Thank you very much for sharing.
