No, the 11/45 was pretty good, but not great for image 
processing and other programs with a lot of data.  Once we 
got the VAX, I rewrote NASA's Mini-VICAR image processing 
program and we were able to run the TeX typesetting program, 
among others.  Those were not so practical on the 11, mostly 
due to the address size.
