and have been quite interested in the high capability PDPs like the
PDP-11 Series for starters. I didn't know there were PDP 12 Series
computers. Are there other PDP series computers as well?


A good reference to the complete PDP range is "Computer Engineering: A 
DEC View of Hardware Systems Design", Bell, Mudge, McNamara.

(It's a beautiful hardcover to own, but there's a link to an online HTML 
version.)
